Is it just me or does the bottom board in the example seem not fitted in properly?

It doesn't matter it can't go anywhere, I drove 145 km/h with windforce 6 and no movement at all.
Great product

flowmaster is correct, if the top board is solid, it ain't going anywhere

i guess i am more interested in the security of it. They have a locking version now, but if the board is not engaged with the sides then that won`t be very secure.

I have had the double SUP board lock rack for 3 years now. Great product and way quieter than straps (1 board or 2 boards and any combination of types of boards), plus very secure at high wind speed.

For me ideal and pretty much 5 days a week I will have a board on the roof (wishful thinking mainly), and I am comfortable with leaving the boards in public places as a result.

@micksmith - Probably correct in the image's you have referred to, but in reality, if they are on tight, it is actually difficult to remove as the rubber matting sticks well so I have not had this problem.

To me a big bonus is easy, one man loading in high wind conditions will save one money in repairs, and I worry less about damaging my boards trying to tighten the straps to much.

Waiting until they are integrated rather that on top of the rhino racks. Clearance an issue for me and extra 50mm means I hit the roof :)

Great product that saves heaps of time and gives great peace of mind.

Re the photo and security - that board on bottom would be very difficult to get out. It may be possible but remember that both boards have rocker and a whole lot of surface area in contact with each other. Would certainly deter all but the most determined thief.

Ummm I agreed with flowmaster and said it ain't going anywhere.
I have a set and think they're great. very much under rated in my opinion

Apologies Micksmith - I was on a small screen and did not see that you were quoting another person.
Agreed with all though - security even with two boards is very good
