All of our Ski Racks, Snowboard Racks, and Bicycle Racks, and GolfBag/Luggage Racks are:

	Designed to blend into the car attractively and aerodynamically.  They eliminate unattractive, inconvenient, noisy roof racks, trailer hitches, and trunk mounted contraptions. The Bird Automotive Car Rack System looks cool, on or off the car.
	Useable by adults and youths, short and tall.  Skis boards, and bikes are lifted less than two feet off the ground.  Cargos load/unload in less than five minutes.  Most Racks can be stored in the trunk.
	Designed to eliminate damage to the paint and bodywork and to permit car trunks and wagon hatches to be opened without interference. (Trunks open only part-way  on the Volkswagen GTI/Golf).
	Strong and secure. Galvanized and stainless steel components used throughout are designed to substantially exceed rated loads. All cargo can be locked securely to the car.
	Built to the highest standards. Digitally controlled tools and conscientious old-world craftsmen assure consistent quality.  Our design objective is for each System to last as long as the car.
	Installable by owners who have at least average mechanical ability in about an hour. No lift is required. The steel support structure for the Rack, the Receiver Pipes, use existing holes and fittings provided by the car maker. Most models require drilling either one or two virtually invisible holes from under the car.  If not installing yourself, car dealers and independent shops are fully qualified.
	Warranted for one year against defects in material and workmanship and sold with a money-back satisfaction guarantee.

All Bird Automotive ski, board and bicycle Racks use Arms and a pair of  Legs shown at the right which are inserted into Pipes installed under the bumper.  Each  Ski/Snowboard Rack consists of a stainless steel Tray attached to a Leg to hold the tails of the skis/ boards, and, a clamping Track attached to an Arm which secures the skis and boards between their bindings.
