You have already decided where you are skiing or snowboarding this year and you are ready for the slopes. But have you thought about how you will carry your gear? Every year, keen winter-sports fans plan ahead to make their trips as easy as possible. So how will you be taking your skis or snowboards this season? When you get ready for the mountains, our advice is to choose a ski or snowboard rack that suits your needs.

In this article we introduce the Fabbri Taco ski and snowboard rack, which attaches magnetically to the car roof. With this accessory you can take three pairs of skis or two snowboards to the slopes.

We recommend using a proper rack for your ski gear rather than the "it will do" option of squeezing skis or snowboards into the car with you. That is genuinely dangerous: any collision or hard braking can turn your equipment into a hazard for you and your passengers.

How do you fit the Fabbri Taco rack?

Fitting the Taco is very simple. Because the rack is magnetic, all you have to do is place it on the car roof in the correct position. Once you have made sure the Fabbri Taco is sitting correctly, you load your skis or snowboards into the dedicated slots, then close the rack and lock it with the keys supplied. The Taco has rubber and plastic pads that protect your gear for the whole journey.

What is more, the Taco will not scratch or damage your car roof, as it is designed to cause no harm to the car or to your ski gear. The loading area of the Taco is 34 cm, and the Fabbri rack has anti-theft locks for both the rack and the equipment it carries.

With the rack fitted, the maximum driving speed is 130 km/h, and the manufacturer advises you not to exceed it.

Before you choose the Taco, bear in mind that, as a magnetic rack, it needs a steel roof and cannot be fitted to cars with:

- a ribbed or uneven roof

- a fully glazed panoramic roof

- an opening sunroof

Why choose the Fabbri Taco ski and snowboard rack?

Choose this rack and you get a car accessory that is very easy to use and just as easy to fit. Its magnetic base makes it a remarkably versatile ski and snowboard rack.

On top of that, the Taco has anti-theft locks that keep your equipment safe throughout the journey, even when you stop for a short break on the way. Safety is well covered too: the Fabbri Taco has passed TÜV testing and the City Crash test.

And with the Fabbri Taco you can carry either three pairs of skis or two snowboards with ease and in complete safety.
