    • Innovative strap works well
    • you will love it's adjustable straps, i know i do.
    • The cause was the adjustable strap just disintegrated on its own
    • So nice and strong I strapped the wife's yak under mine orrs life jackets cooler in mine
    • so I added ratchet straps to hoist it up a little bit more, the strap that goes around the kayak is also questionable so as a precaution I added two more straps just in case
    • Being said did used the strap as an add on safety support (long term storage hang on an eyelets)
    • The new straps (that don't use clips) are solid and the rope, although still plastic, seems fine.
    • They improved the straps by making loops to adjust the height.
    • The plastic strap clips that other reviewers commented on, that broke or slipped and allowed a dangerous boat drop are indeed gone - replaced by simply sewing multiple loop options into the strap, to fit your particular boat - to put the hooks through
    • straps feel very strong and seem like they could handle a large amount of weight with no problem
    • This worked for about a year, and then the strap broke and it crashed onto my car.
    • Easy to install and very good, adjustable straps.
    • but you need to stabilize the straps so that they don't shift when you are hoisting the system up

    • The straps are easily adjustable to fit most canoes or kayaks.
    • The strap webbing that supports the kayak is very
    • the adjustable straps just ripped apart at a couple of the stitching points with no help from me
    • The strap broke and the kayak fell on a very expensive mountain bike, trashing the frame.
    • The straps are fantastic.
    • The straps that go around the kayak are very nice and durable.
    • the adjustable straps just ripped apart at a couple of the stitching points with no help from me
    • The straps are adjustable but again may not get your kayak as high as desired.
    • Speaking of the straps the way they designed them isn't in the same way that a climbing daisy chain is designed where if one section of stitching fails the next loop will catch, here if the loop you are using fails the whole strap will come off the hook and your boat will fall, so make sure to inspect the straps from time to time.
    • Notes: It MUST be attached through the ceiling to a strong beam(s), so accurately locating that beam is essential
    • n’t break the lock
    • Works well holds ascend fs128t with gear no problem!
    • works as it was advertised
    • Only 4 stars as the company shouldn't include any lag screws and should require the purchaser to buy the appropriate rated screws for mounting as the included screws for my application were too short and some were very poor quality as they broke.
    • This thing is as great as it is simple.
    • A little tricky to orient and run the rope but works as it should.
    • This is a great p product, easy to install and really easy to use.
