Ski and Snowboard Carrier, Aragon TowCar Aneto 4 with Tow Hook Attachment

In addition to the classic solution for transporting skis and snowboards, on crossbars or magnetic supports, the Spanish manufacturer Aragon presents us with a new concept TowCar Aneto.

This ski carrier, with attachment to the tow hook, has several advantages listed in the detailed product description.

This ski carrier with attachment to the tow hook has several advantages:

• loading and unloading of the equipment is done at a much lower height, at body level, requiring minimal effort
• the aerodynamics of the car are much less affected than positioning the skis on the roof, resulting in an almost imperceptible additional noise level, as well as reduced fuel consumption
• the possibility of mounting on several cars equipped with a tow hook, without other investments additional

This towbar mount is equipped with an electrical installation with additional lamps, which connects to the towbar socket.

It also has an additional license plate holder. The electrical system plug is 13-pin, but, thanks to the included adapter, it can also be connected to a 7-pin socket.

TowCar Aneto is very easy to mount on the towbar, by simply pressing a lever, and thanks to the support's folding function, the trunk lid can be opened even when the support is mounted on the car.

Both the towbar attachment system and the ski attachment system are equipped with a keyed anti-theft system.

To calculate the payload of the equipment that can be transported on your car, the ski carrier's own weight will be subtracted from the maximum vertical load allowed on the towbar.

For example, if the vertical load is 75 kg, we will subtract 23 kg (the mass of the support) from this and we will be left with 52 kg, the maximum permitted weight. of the snow equipment that can be transported (composed of the sum of the individual weights of the skis and boards that you want to put on the rack).

Attention! For traffic safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends that the edges of the skis mounted on the rack do not exceed the width of the car body (excluding side mirrors).

To give you an idea, following the manufacturer's recommendation, the maximum length of the skis that can be transported would be 199cm on a BMW X5, 180 cm on a Vw Passat B8, 181 cm on a Skoda Octavia III or 168cm on a Vw Polo.
