ADVISE: Do not use that bungee on a roll stuff. Too much stretch.
Use the thick manly big bad black bungee (solid black rubber-no cloth
covering) and your boards stay put. I carry three boards on my gorge rack
and often travel at mach 1.7 on 280 without incident. The BBBB cords are
solid, especially if you double them up.
