| Hey Brett, Can it hold a 20 foot long slider? The Slider isn't to heavy, maybe 150 lbs. Most roof racks can carry it and I have some heavy duty straps.

The promoter of these events doesn't wear board shorts when he snowkites (probably means he's gay) I wouldn't go!!
Just Kidding man - I'll try and make it down - would be good to get some riding in!!
