This is a reference for the former Models & Surf soft surfboard roof rack. The original catalogue described a removable padded carrier using nylon, EPE foam, webbing and buckles, with single and double options.

Construction

The recovered description identifies a nylon outer material, EPE foam padding, and webbing with buckles. The source does not provide a certified load rating, vehicle-specific fit list or tested speed limit.

The original listing promoted fast mounting and removal. No installation manual was included in the recovered description, so this reference does not substitute a generic fitting procedure for instructions supplied with a carrier or vehicle.

Single and double options

The catalogue described the single version as carrying two to three surfboards, depending on their size. The double version was described as carrying four to six, with a larger storage bag.

Those figures are historical catalogue descriptions, not verified load limits for a particular car, board stack or journey. Board dimensions, the vehicle and the actual carrier instructions determine whether a transport arrangement is appropriate.

What this archive can identify

The original photographs show the rack, padding, straps and storage arrangement. They can help an existing owner identify the former item and distinguish its options. The recovered source does not establish universal compatibility with every roof design, nor that roof paint cannot be damaged.

Read the surf accessories guide for related equipment references and surfboard care and maintenance for the retained board-care article.
