Ideally two thule set to go saddles sold separately would be used as the two front oriented saddles of this carrier configuration but existing rubber faced saddles will work as well.

The thule dockglide is a low private profile roof rack system that noticeably displays the kayak while holding it securely in position.
Thule hydro glide saddles are designed to be used as the two rear oriented saddles of a four saddle roof rack kayak carrier configuration. Like the j type saddles are good for larger boat sizes. The rear carriers allow the kayak to glide forward easily over the front carriers which grip the kayak with their rubber surfaces once the kayak is dropped down onto them. Your boat rests with its full width sitting flat over the roof of your vehicle.
A rack of this type can use either a single pair of saddles or two pairs of saddles to hold a kayak. Much smoother than rollers. Giving you the freedom to head out for a paddle whenever you feel like it and only on your terms. The thule 883 glide and set rooftop saddle kayak carrier is the perfect combination of thule s hydro glide and set to go saddles in one package.
