The Thule 810001 SUP Taxi XT Paddleboard Carrier combines security and convenience making it one of the most popular stand up paddle board racks on the market. The 810001 is a premium, locking stand-up paddleboard carrier for the roof of your vehicle. The SUP Taxi XT gives you the ability to carry up to two paddle-boards by stacking one on top the other, you then run a pull-tight nylon strap with steel reinforced webbing to secure your boards down onto your roof.
Universal mounting hardware
The SUP Taxi XT uses Thule's patented SpeedLink universal attachment hardware which grabs around both factory and after market crossbar systems with ease. Thule's SpeedLink hardware is made which stainless steel which is then rubber-coated to provide better grip along with allowing it to conform to a wide range of load bars.
Fully locking
Locking SpeedLink hardware once properly tightened around your crossbar you can be locked using Thule's One Key System. This prevents someone from being able to remove your SUP Taxi XT off the roof of your vehicle. Next you load up your SUP boards and then run the pull-tight nylon strap with steel reinforced webbing over top of the boards and lock it into Thule's newly designed push button lock system. After tying down the front and rear of your SUP board you are off to the water.
Increased padding for SUP board
The 810001 uses soft, weather resistant padding which will protects boards during transit along with standing up to a lifetime of use. The locking strap also includes rubber chafe guards to ensure a snug fit against your paddle boards and prevent continuous rubbing on those longer trips.
