 Secure as can be, but straps aren't for the big boards August 16, 2008
Was excited to get this as my crossbars are very close together and lateral stability was key. My board is 11'3" L 29.5" W and over 4" thick. Had everything set up all nice and neat until I tried to get the straps on. Except they are too short to hook on for my board. Don't see how any stand up board or thicker and wider board would fit with the included straps so I was back to standard compression straps. So much for the quick convenience. But the captures are nice and work well. So hopefully Thule will send me some longer straps when they wise up and make them bigger. I did call to complain. If your dimensions are smaller than mine (29.5" w and about 4.5" thick) then you'll be fine. The straps were short by about 2+ inches at their longest.
 Bomber Board Carrier! November 19, 2007

Bought this attachment from another retailer but its the same product. Boards go on and off, super fast and easy. One thing that bears mention is that it doesn't work with two wide (23") boards stacked on top of each other. Besides that, you'll be stoked with the simplicity and security of this carrier. Alo-o-o-ha!
Easy installation and excellent price.. October 17, 2007
This an excellent rack accessory. I have a Ford Explorer with factory racks and the 554xt fits perfectly.
