Attach your surfboard to your car roof rack with the Yakima Strap Thang. This pair of straps uses tension to hold your board securely in place so it doesn't float awayon the highway at 65 mph. You can use the Strap Thang with board bags, and you'll need the Yakima Crossbar Pads (sold separately) to cushion your surfboard, so it doesn't rub or slide on your crossbars.

I own this system, and last week lost my $1200 windsurfer while going about 45 mph in a national park. It is terrible.
You can't get the system tight without damaging the newer, more delicate boards. In my case the strap simply broke. You have to hook it on the rack, then tighten through a slot, then take the ends of a rubber cord back into a "cincher." My cord snapped, and the board went flying.
Our local windsurfing shop also says stay away...they know of others who have had problems.
The racks are well-made, just this StrapThang is not good. Get a webbed strap or something more sturdy.

OK, first off I'll admit I have two pairs of strap thangs on my car (left and right side of the racks) and I use them nearly everyday for carring my boards to the beach. I just think that this item, like all yakima and thule merchandise is WAY OVER PRICED! All it is is some plastic, some nylon, some rubber and a brass bolt. Jeez...fifty bucks?
Oh, one more thing- it takes a lot of fiddling around to get them adjusted right.
The really good thing is that your boards are pretty secure and that's the important thing.
Lastly- when the rubber bands wear out don't sweat it. Replace with bungee cord material available at a well stocked hardware store.
