They are an easy fit on my Yakima 78" crossbars, --for my Wilderness Systems Tarpon 140 fishing kayak.Why purchase these and not a set of kayak saddles? Well, I already had a set of Yakima adjustable kayak saddles that did not really conform to the hull of my kayak the way I would have liked. There was not much contact with the boat, to many gaps even after the tie-down straps were cinched down and lots of time spent adjusting them.The foam blocks were the way to go, exactly what I was looking for. A great fit to the kayak hull, and a secure tie-down to the crossbars on my kayak trailer.Pros:--There is a channel cut for your cross bars. The universal foam blocks from the local big box stored did not.--They are easy to remove from the bars to lock away in the car while on the water.Cons:--The fit is a bit loose. In hindsight, I should have looked for the manufacturer’s instructions. The straps that are provided with this product are for securing the foam blocks to the kayak. There is a longer strap for securing the kayak to the vehicle And two straps for securing each end of the hull to the bumper or other tie down point. Kind of hard to see all of this in the picture.Shipping and other:When I ordered these Saturday evening, October 4th, 2014. The Amazon automated email said I should receive them somewhere between October 10 and October 16. Much to my surprise, I received them on Wednesday, October 8th, under Amazon Prime, awesome! They were well packed, not a thing wrong with them. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ They are dirty & starting to deteriorate a little bit *by A***H on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on August 21, 2014* I bought these because I have a small economy car without a roof rack. I am a new kayaker & wasn't sure how long I'd be using it. I have used these back & forth to the bay near my home about 5-6 times. They are dirty & starting to deteriorate a little bit, but for now, they still work well for the occasional kayak journey. I am now selling my kayak after one year. I just don't have the time or money to continue the sport, so instead I will try photography. I'm glad I didn't spend hundreds on a roof rack/J-style carrier. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The straps are of great quality, and the metal buckles are very well ... *by B***O on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on May 18, 2015* Overall ...You can't beat the value of this carrier. The straps are of great quality, and the metal buckles are very well made, very efficient and sturdy! But I do have to tell you.... there is no such thing as a " laminated super griping base on the blocks ". They are just plain old foam blocks. However, they do a good job. I would still highly recommend this carrier! I just have a little gripe about the advertised wording...seems a little deceptive. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1750344-yakima-foam-blocks-kayak-carrier](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1750344-yakima-foam-blocks-kayak-carrier) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
