Used the straps to secure two boards. They worked great held into place well. Long enough for another board or two. We have bought these Great straps, rack pillows, fins, leash, canvas sack all have been solid and I will continue buying from them.

I've used these a few times now, strapping a surfboard to the rack on top of my car. They haven't scratched the paint yet, and the first time I didn't tie them down too well and they banged the top of my car all the way to the beach. My bad. On the way home, I secured the straps so they didn't run close to the roof of the car, and they worked fine. They seem solidly constructed, work well, and look like they'll last a long time. The buckle is challenging at first, you might have to use both thumbs until they are used a few times, but they hold the straps in place and the material is very smooth, so they won't scratch anything.

I love these!! I use them to tie down my 8’ fiberglass ladder on top of my truck. Works like a dream. Heavy durable straps that don’t untie from high speed winds.

This strap really surprised me. The quality of the strap itself is very very nice and slick so it doesn't grind/scratch your surfboards or rack. The strap cams/clamps themselves are very strong and do not let the strap go anywhere. But that rubber housing around the clamps is what truly sets this apart from other straps out there! I can't tell you how many times over the years I've unclamped straps and pulled on them without thinking just to have the metal clamp fall onto the roof of my car. These rubber housings are incredibly thick and if they fall onto your roof/hood/windshield etc it's a soft thud instead of a clank and scratch/crack. Finally, the length is amazing. I don't know how many boards I could strap down on my car but it's more than the amount of people I could fit in my car!I've also used this to strap down large sheets of plywood and other lumber for short trips and it held it all down without issue. This is a strong versatile strap!For the price, I did NOT expect this kind of quality. Truly a full 5/5. Now I need some Ho Stevie! surf bags!

Bought these since I had just installed the rack on my classic car and needed something to tie down one of my surfboards on top. Simple to use, durable, and work perfectly! On top of that, a few weeks later - someone attempted to steal the surfboard overnight. I guess the straps were too tough for them because they couldn’t manage to take it off! So I guess it comes with some theft prevention 😆 Will recommend to all my friends!

Love the protective rubber coverings over the buckles. Good quality and durable strap. Getting the strap fed thru the opening is a bit awkward, though. It’s like the very end of the strap naturally has a little bend in it so I frequently hit the metal around the opening several times when trying to feed it through. Eventually, I finagle it enough to find a way to push it thru the opening and then cinching it tight.The rubber protection over the buckles is flexible but does move around a bit. Hoping it holds up!I actually like the storage case, too, and always roll my straps up into it for storage. Clean and tidy!

These straps are awesome! I am a petite person and was able to put both paddle boards on my Rav4 in about 5 minutes by myself. The buckle covers are nice and soft and I had absolutely no issue pushing the buckle open. Did 80 mph on the highway and the boards didn't even budge. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
