The Step-Up sits over the top of a tire and gives you a non-skid 26 x 8.5 in platform to stand on while you load, strap or check a roof-mounted boat. Step height and tire width both adjust, the bright yellow finish keeps it visible, and it folds flat to ride in the trunk.

- It is not listed for the Subaru Outback or Honda CRV, so owners of those vehicles should look at other options.
KayakDIY take: Being able to reach the middle of the roof makes strapping a boat down a lot safer. For more gear ideas, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
