Protection Where It Counts
The Creatures of Leisure Rax Pad Round Bar sits directly between your surfboards and bar-style roof racks, absorbing pressure and eliminating the direct contact that causes dings, pressure dents, and finish damage. Pair them with Creatures Tie Downs for a complete, board-safe roof-carry system.
Built to Handle the Elements
Creatures of Leisure has spent 30 years engineering surfing accessories that hold up to salt air, UV exposure, and the everyday wear of the surf commute. The Rax Pad Round Bar is made from durable, UV-treated material that resists fading and degradation season after season. The fastening system uses corrosion-resistant Velcro so the pads stay locked to the rack bar even at highway speeds and in wet conditions.
Designed for Bar-Style Roof Racks
These are short roof rack pads sized specifically for round bar-style roof rack systems. They wrap cleanly around the bar, providing full coverage between the rack and your board. Whether you are carrying a single shortboard or stacking multiple boards, the cushioned padding distributes load evenly and keeps your quiver scratch-free from driveway to lineup.
Why Creatures of Leisure
With operations in Western Australia, the Gold Coast, France, and California, Creatures of Leisure develops accessories used by surfers worldwide. Their philosophy is straightforward: blend decades of on-the-water experience with current materials to build gear that genuinely lasts. The Rax Pad Round Bar is that approach applied to one of the most overlooked parts of the surf setup: how you get your boards to the water safely.
