LockRack: A Kayak and Paddle Board Rack That Needs No Straps
I take a look at LockRack, a locking rack system that holds kayaks and paddle boards on your vehicle with no straps.
What’s in this video
LockRack caught my eye again at ICAST. I saw it last year, and this year I saw tons of kayakers running them on their vehicles. It holds your kayak or paddle board on your roof, trailer or truck bed rack without any straps.
It locks with a key, so it also works as anti theft while you’re on the road. I liked it enough that I’m going to install LockRacks on my kayak fishing trailer. KayakDIY wasn’t paid to make this video.
Quick takeaways
- LockRack works on roof racks, trailers and truck bed racks.
- It locks with a key, so it doubles as theft protection on the road.
