Rack Attack Team
Say howdy to this kayak-ready Honda Element, the quickest rack installation in the Wild mid-West. That's right, this six-shooter is quick on the draw, and thanks to the Element's accommodating roof mounts--and Yakima's Landing Pad 9, Control Towers and 58" Crossbar--the rack is strong, stable, and versatile. The Element comes equipped with roof mounts built in, so it's as simple as removing a faceplate and screwing the Landing Pad in place, attaching the bars, and snapping the towers into place. Then you and your gang can ride out in style.
With these Yakima Hullraiser J-Cradles, the 'yak that gets hogtied to this roof isn't going nowhere, no how. Because of the even pressure of J-cradles, even in the hot sun, the boat will sit gently in the cradles without warping or bending.
And, thanks to the Yakima Control Towers, the rack can come off as easy as a ten-gallon hat. Simply pop up the plastic face plate, and the tower unlocks, letting you take off the rack come winter, or if the law is on your tail.
In case you're worried about rustlers, Control Towers can also be locked in place with Yakima SKS Lock Cores. Now, with a kayak in tow, this Honda Element is ready to hit the dusty trail. Y'all come back now!
