I need to figure out a way to mount snow skis on my adventure roof rack. Anyone have any good ideas or good pictures? |

I have not tested it yet but I am going to try to get the clamp to fit products to Yakima racks. They are a round clamp. You could always just get the clamps and try it. they look to be the right size. Has anyone else tried this? |

Back when I was thinking about buying an adventure rack I took a few of the Yakima clamps and tried them out on it and they were almost perfect, they were just a hair to big, I was planning on cutting an old bike intertube to make sure they stayed snug. FWIW, YMMV, Yada, Yada and yada |

THere are two other Yakima products that will work. 1) Use some Yakima Low Riders to mount some 56" Cross Bars to the Adventure Rack. Then use factory Yakima stuff . 2) Yakima and Thule both have a universal mount that fits most sizes of cross bars. Yakima uses it primarily as a way of Locking the Mega Warrior to the factory cross bars but its pretty universal. l8r Todd |

I think the real question here is not, "how do I mount snow skis on my rack" but really, Why are you using skis when snowboarding is atleast 45 times(give or take 15) times better? |
