Almost perfect: Sports

Excellent. Exactly as advertised. I liked the equipment. Only problem, the edges were sharp. I just rubbed it with sandpaper and it worked. I will buy again.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Poor quality control

My kit was missing a washer and one of the locknuts was the wrong size. This product is extremely overpriced for what it is. They could have at least turned on the right hardware and made sure nothing was missing.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Speed

Highly recommended ! Good for sport

I used two of these to attach my rear stabilizer arms to my Pelican. I only tried the single mount system and it broke immediately. The five anchor bolts in the rail system make it strong enough to hold securely.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Expensive

Some kayaks may need a little modification

So I installed it on my fishing kayak and had to cut off about 1/2 inch to fit the pre-formed slot on my boat. Otherwise it works like a dream and is very easy to install. sturdy and doesn't flex would definitely recommend this product.

Pros
  • Ok!
Cons
  • Expensive

The equipment provided is not suitable.

The screw that comes with the rail is too big. They don't slide down. The heads are too big. We had to file off parts of the rail just to mount the screws. Very dissatisfied with this product. Yak Attack has always been a great brand so I was shocked by that.

Pros
  • Doping ๐Ÿ”ฅ I'll write
Cons
  • later

3rd Gen DIY Tacorail

Seeing that it would cost $150-$200 to buy one, I decided to make my own dash mount for my 2018 Tacoma. All in all I spent about $60 on the parts and then just sanded down this resin rod until it was thin enough to make room on the dash. Combined with screw, mounting arm and bracket for convenient phone and tablet holder

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • Available in white only

A bit expensive for paddle accessories

Something essential if you want to expand your accessories. They will surely surprise you with the price tag. This is a great product but the hardware is not of the highest quality. The screws have a hex head and can be easily removed. They also come with lock washers to prevent loosening but make it easier to remove the hex socket.

Pros
  • Sample for a year
Cons
  • Hard to say

Comparison: Kayak

I had a problem with the original chains that came with my kayak. I bought Scotty's mounts for all my accessories but nearly lost a $200 fishing rig twice because the original chains were too wide in the opening and when the big catfish got hooked it ripped the mount out of the chains. YakAttack's new tracks are much narrower, which is perfect for Scotty's mounts. I have provided two photos for comparison so you can see the difference. They are plastic but appear to be very durable. Peopleโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Price
