Product Details
The "Swiss army knife" of cartop kayak racks, the Yakima JayLow can hold one kayak in its supportive J-Cradle, or convert into a kayak stacker to support two boats.
- The padded J-Cradles spread out the boat's weight, especially nice with more fragile expensive composite kayaks.
- The integrated ramps on the out-facing side of the cradles provide a smooth, non-scratching surface for sliding your boat up onto the cradles.
- If you need to carry two kayaks, simply lock the padded arm in the upright position and put the second boat on the other side.
- Includes straps for lashing one boat to the rack and bow/stern security straps.
- When not in use the padded arm folds flat to reduce wind resistance.
- Fits on round, square and most factory cross bars.
- Locks securely with SKS Lock Cores (sold separately).

A Very Good Purchase
A great cradle to purchase to secure a kayak. Can travel without anxiety when the kayak is sitting in JayLow. Easy to install and once again wonderful service by NRS staff.

JayLow Highs
We use the racks to transport up to two kayaks on factory crossbars. The racks work very well and are quite easy to install and remove when necessary. Especially like the locking mechanism as it does not take a lot of strength to adjust and is very secure. Extremely pleased and find these rack superior to the more expensive brands.

Hello Jaylows Goodbye Bow-Wows..
The JayLows are a great upgrade from the Yakima Bow-Downs. The Jays are easy to install and provide a great secure fit for your kayak. There is a place I go to paddle just to be on the water and stay in shape that is just down the road--literally 3minutes-- from where I live. When I put my composite kayak up on the JayLows I don't even utilize the tie-downs and my boat stays securely in the cradle. If I go on long trips I use tie-downs and feel comfortable that these JayLows will secure my boat. This is a vey good product from Yakima. I also purchased the SweetRoll and they are wonderful. I perceive that SweatRolls will replace Hully-Rollers and the JayLow will replace the Bow-Downs. Worth the $$$ on both systems.
