INNOINA951

The install was not super easy as the instructions were a bit vague. Once I figured it out the second unit went up in a snap. I loaded 1 board and 4 pairs of skis with room to spare. Nothing moved an inch during my 3 hour each way trip. Wind noise was minimal. The unit opens, closes and locks very easily. Seems to be of high quality design and materials.

Nice quality, easy to install, and works well. Didn’t lose any equipment on first trip. 🤣

So far so good. Great racks for the price. Look great and easy to install and use. Like how you can spread them out easily to access form either side of vehicle. Also seem very durable, although have only used for 2 trips so far.

Fantastic. Work like a charm.

Update February 2020: Still working great although I did find one issue - the arms only go up about 45 degrees, so there's not enough room to grab a pair of skis from behind another pair. So if I drop off a buddy and his skis are on the inside, I have to pull the 1 or 2 other pairs out first.Also I moved the rack to my new Forester and found that it has to mount on the plastic end pieces because the rack requires at least 30" of cross bar width. I actually widened them slightly using the adjustable sliders in the middle of the racks so they aren't right on the edge of the end pieces. Fortunately the claw mounts grab to almost anything and it seems to hold fine but make sure you have 30" of some sort of crossbar to mount these to. The racks come with rubber strips to seal the grooves when you widen the racks - probably not essential but a very nice touch to help keep out dust, water and snow.I posted a new picture showing how far up the arm goes and where they mount on my stock Forester crossbars. Still very happy with these ski racks!Original review:This ski rack is great quality, comparable to my Yakima rack. I love that it easily holds 6 pairs of skis, 3 on each side, with access from each side. Of course that means you have to lock both sides too. If you only have super fats you can fit 2 pairs on each side, but I have a mix of adult and kid skis so a couple of fatter pairs fit in nicely.Installation from the box took about 20 minutes, and now they can pop on and off the roof in mere seconds, without any tool, just by opening the rack and pulling the levers on each side! An allen wrench is included for the 4 screws needed for initial installation. Now I don't have to leave my ski rack on the car full time from October to July.The rubber bumpers for the skis are really nice, thick and soft, and hold the skis well. There is also rubber to protect your crossbars. The two sides split to make access easier from each side, and a cut to fit rubber piece needs to be installed in the middle. It just pushes into place but you'll need a razor blade or something to cut it.I wondered how well the claws would really hold. Turns out they hold great on my first generation Honda Pilot crossbars. They can fit just about any bars with a width of 1" to 3 1/2" and a height of 7/8" to 1 3/8". The lever pulls them really tight and I have zero wiggling. It does need to be adjusted with a simple thumb wheel to get the right tension, but it's really easy.The locks come installed with 2 keys. The lock cores are different from other ski rack brands. Once closed and locked the levers can't be opened for security. Made in China. These are built to last for many years and I'm sure they will.

Unit came packaged super well. Instructions were decent but we still struggled a bit to figure out how to install it, could be just us though. But gray adjustment wheel was not intuitive. I would recommend watching a youtube video on how to install it, and installation will make so much more sense.Its almost a no tool instillation, once the unit is fitted to your car , you can take it off or install back on - and will take take almost no time. BUT if you do not lock - its also easy for someone to remove it for you. Make sure to lock both sides.First impression: looks sturdy and nice.What i like about it:1. capacity - so no more skies inside the car :)2. fairly easy to operate both locking mechanism and put on / take off the car3. Looks pretty good4. Lock / unlock decently marked though a bit on a small side.I did not like:1. always have to keep it locked. otherwise its easy to remove it2. the rubber inserts - were all scratched up - looked as it been used (not a deal breaker but was surprised that a brand new unit would look like it)Neutral - a sticker with warning is included and you should attach it that tells you to lock your rack but its in a place where you normally would not see it : (My wish list - a better marking for locked / unlocked positions. maybe in yellow or something to remind you.

I have an INNO rooftop cargo box that I've been really happy with, so I was excited to try this INNO mount for when I'm just taking snowboards to the mountain. I try to get out often during ski season, and before I had this or the cargo box it was a challenge to get boards to fit in my SUV along with a car full of people. A roof mount of some sort is definitely a game changer for taking your gear to the mountain.These are super easy to install. Once you have it down, it takes less than five minutes to pop onto your crossbars. They provide a really sturdy, stable fit and really clamp down on your boards to keep them in place, but they're also coated in-between the clamps so they don't scrape your boards up. It's really easy to get the boards in and out of the mount, so loading and unloading is quick and painless.These also don't really take up that much space so it's easy to store them away in corners of the garage when not in use, or even on a closet floor. These are really well made and will last for decades I'm sure. Definitely recommend.

Good product. A small bit of hassle to get it installed, but it IS easy to follow the directions provided. That said, I liked how easy it was to fit the braces/clips towards the outside of each side of my vehicle so I don't have to stretch to the middle of the roof to snap my skis in -- good job there. I also l,ike how it's a DUAL locking mechanism for snapping the braces down, which helps to ensure that the skis/snowboards are secured in place. No wind noise either (at least none I can perceive), and they are pretty good looking too overall. On the whole, very pleased to have this product, and have had no issues putting adult or kid skis on it (4 pairs) -- though just a little crowded when I also add the poles on. On the whole, good product and one I'd recommend.
