ROCKETBOX PRO 11 HOW TO

It's not a super sturdy construction, and has its flaws with the lock-unlock button being difficult to push in sometimes, as well as the clamping mechanism at each end seems a bit flimsy. I've owned the Rocketbox pro 11 since fall of 2016, and it's served me well, doing exactly what I was looking for it to - get skis and boards out of my car (subaru impreza) in the winter while still being protected, and extra storage for road trips in the summer. However, I will take a very serious look before assuming the functional Yakima engineering of yesterday continues tomorrow. I will work with Yakima to make this box function because I like Yakima and their support and products have been great in the past. etc., but for the price of this box (albeit reasonable in this market) I don't think the end user should have to deal with modifications or problems like this.

It is true, there are support articles on how to remedy the locking mechanism problems by opening up the mechanism with a torx wrench, etc. We extricated the ski gear but this was a silly, time consuming situation.

When one side totally failed to open on our last day ski tour, we struggled over the roof from the other side of the 4Runner to get the remaining side to work. The mechanism on both sides feel like they're filled with cold molasses even on warm days. I have now bent two keys attempting to get skis out of the box. The single key mechanism to lock/unlock three latches at a time problematic. I struggle to get a couple of ski bags inside (~190-205cm skis) with some ski boots/clothing. The hinges, designed to open in either direction, end up bulky, somewhat flimsy (although they haven't broken) and seemingly get in the way of what used to be very usable space. This convenience and security all in one package comes at a cost. I appreciate the concept of being able to open the box from either side, and the three latches to secure the lid (each side). I'm looking out my window at two older Rocket boxes on cars we own, and they've been going strong for dozens of years. My family has used Yakima products since the 1980's.
