its one man kayaks. I found some that say dont use on vinyl...but... honestly i dont see the problem (every single one said dont use on vinyl). its two bars and have a squishy foam underneath each bar and it straps under the roof through the doors. I think im going to get it. i couldnt find much on ski racks.

just keep your speed down .. I think twice about driving at 80mph with kayaks, vinyl or not.

you may also want to be sure that the vinyl is well treated.
if it is dry, it could suffer severe scuffing and worst.
