Yakima FatCat 6 w/Locks - 2009
Pick up your friends or family and secure up to six pairs of fat skis or 4 snowboards in the Yakima FatCat 6 w/Locks. Designed to handle today’s obese skis, the FatCat 6 uses push-button operation to minimize your loading time and maximum riding time. Yakima’s unique hinge system keeps your rack compact and low while aerodynamic nesting arms reduce drag to save you some gas money on the way to the resort. An integrated binding lift allows clearance for taller ski bindings with almost no effort involved and the universal mounting hardware fits round and square Yakima crossbars. Most factory crossbars are also compatible without any extra accessories.
Bottom Line: A solution to obese ski transport.
Leave your mark on The Wall.

I've got clips and the extentions to use this with both our Honda Civic 2004 coupe and Subaru Legacy 2007 sedan. I have fit 3 snowboards on the rack for long trips, and the most i've ever thrown up there was 2 snowboards and 2 skis. The Civic could barely move with 4 riders/skiers inside and all our gear. But this rack helps move those big bulky skis and boards around if you've only got a car to work with.
Also, the only reason I wasn't able to fit 4 snowboard onto the rack is because the boards on the bottom, when flipped upside down, the bindings get in the way. For my cars I don't have enough clearance between the rack and my roof. Solution...take off the bindings! Never had a need though.
Overall, awesome product, high quality. Drove my car from New Hampshire to Washington with my board up in the rack. No problems. Has held up over many seasons. And the locks definitely give you comfort when you've gotta step inside the gas station for a snack.
The description says it holds 4 snowboards, but the specs say
The description says it holds 4 snowboards, but the specs say it only holds 2. Anyone know which one is right? Thanks!

The rack can hold 4 snowboards if you put two side by side facing down and two directly on top facing up. Make sure that you have the clearance for the bindings facing down so they don't hit the roof. You can also take off the bindings for more room.

I can fit 4 snowboards and a pair of skis on this rack at once, fill up my car with five people and head to the mountain with no worries of my snowboard and the rest of my friends equipment flying off my car like my prior rack that I bought. This rack is awesome, good purchase if you have your car filled frequently with friends.
Change me.
