Rack Warehouse: Yakima HitchSki Trailer Hitch Ski & Snowboard Carrier

The Yakima 8002418 HitchSki Ski and Snowboard Rack is designed to work with 4 or 5 bike Yakima Trailer Hitch Receiver Mounted Bicycle Racks.  The HitchSki Carrier carries up to 6 pairs of skis, or 4 snowboards, or 3 pairs of skis and 2 snowboards. The Hitchski Carrier is equipped with soft, rubber padded jaws to delicately protect your skis and snowboards. The 8002418 HitchSki Carrier is designed with adjustable technology to fit the thickest skis and snowboards. The HitchSki Carrier includes 2 SKS Lock Cores and Keys to lock your skis and snowboards to the carrier. Additional accessories may be purchased to secure the entire rig to your bike rack or trailer hitch including an optional arm lock or deadlock 


Key Product Highlights: 

  • Carries up to 6 pairs of skis, or 4 snowboards, or 3 pair of skis and 2 snowboards

  • Works with specific 4 or 5 bike Yakima Trailer Hitch Bicycle Racks

  • Includes 2 SKS Lock Cores and Keys to lock skis and snowboards to the carrier

  • Weight: 29 lbs

  • Dimensions: 24" deep x 22" tall x 31" wide


One thing to make a note of is that a hitch bike back is required for this set-up, but is sold separately.  The Yakima FullSwing works very well and is highly recommended to support this set-up.  It’s important to be aware of the fact that the Yakima Hitchski is not compatible with: 2 bike hitch racks, Ridgeback 2, Ridgeback 5, DoubleDown 2, DoubleDown Ace 2, HighLite 2 or 3, SpareJoe, SpareTime, or SpareRide Spare Tire Racks. This is a fantastic cost effective option for those who already have a compatible bike hitch carrier laying around. The Yakima HitchSki removes the need of a full vehicle rack system and cargo box or ski attachment, potentially saving you a bunch of money!
