Yakima HandRoll Kayak Roller Cradles

Yakima 8004082 HandRoll Kayak Roller Cradles are designed for easy loading, unloading and the transport of kayaks. The HandRoll offers a unique design that allows you to roll your kayak on and off your vehicle with ease. The Dynaflex pivoting, rubber padded rollers adjust to most hull shapes for smooth rolling. HandRoll cradles function best when the rear cross bar is positioned far enough toward the rear of your vehicle to allow loading from the rear without interference from your roof or trunk. Once your kayak is rolled into position, the rollers lock in place and the rubber wheels grip your hull to prevent movement. Yakima's 8004082 HandRoll cradles function best on station wagons, vans, SUVs and pickup trucks due to the rear loading requirement (sedan trunks and vehicles with racks positioned forward make it difficult to load from the rear). HandRoll rollers are sold in pairs. Yakima 8004083 DeckHand Saddles are recommended for the front cross bar (sold separately). Heavy-duty tie down straps are included to securely fasten your kayak to your HandRolls. Bow and stern tie down straps are included (and strongly recommended) to prevent movement caused by crosswinds and sudden stops and accelerations. Yakima HandRoll rollers are lockable and compatible with Yakima crossbars, Thule crossbars, and most other aftermarket and factory installed bars out of the box (SKS Lock Cores sold separately). Tool free installation makes setup and boat width adjustments fast and easy.
