Apr 2010 at 22:02 I fear that may be too big. Also, its own weight has to be taken into account - max 100kg for omega roof - you need to include roof bars and roofbox in this value, as well as luggauge. You just need length? What about the long, thin 'ski' type ones?

Seen those, but thought rather go for the bigger ones to get more stuff in Undecided

Length is the key for boards, would like to get other stuff like Ski & Snowboard boots in on top too
