from here, just get either the snowboard carrier, ski carrier (holds either a board or skis), or a roof box (I used to use this option... it's great. protects the boards while driving, you can leave the boards in until the next trip... BUT for me, it won't fit in the garage, thus the box now sits in the basement). the bars do cause a whistling noise. I didn't want my bikes over the moonroof, so I didn't experiement w/ moving the bars fore/aft and I don't have the fairing, so I can't comment on its effectiveness. |

If you can wait, I should have pics up by the end of the week. Heading up to Tahoe next weekend, and it's time to get the rack on.

Just came back from a trip in Tahoe. The Thule rack worked very well . From what I noticed, I did not see much if any of a dip in the bars even when loaded with 4 snowboards. I am pretty particular about this such as this, as I am an engineer by trade.
My only complaint is that these racks ride real close to the roof. My particular bindings actually hit the roof when flipped upside down, but some of my passengers had lower profile bindigns and were able to barely get them in w/o contact to the roof. Does Thule manufacture raisers? |

Nope, Thule doesnot have the adaptor to raise the ski/snowboard carrier for better clearance, unlike the Yakima system. I'm currently using the 726 model and the bindings do have enough clearance from the roof. The 725 carrier sits lower than the 726 so the bindings will rub.
If you don't want any issue with clearance then this Thule snowboard-specific carrier is the one:
