Cayenne and Yakima snowboard rack

Hooked up my Cayenne S with the Yakima snowboard rack system.

I initially had the Porsche roof Transport System. But it started to whistle above 80mph when I put on my snowboard. Driving to Heavenly snow with 4 hours of whistling was very annoying. That's why I switched to Yakima. Their kit fit on the stock Cayenne rail which looks integrated and gave me more flexibility to add the fairing/wind deflector (no more whistling. went 105mph for test) . I'm also able to tilt one side of the snowboard carrier if needed.

Youre right, i had the yakima on my previous CS, and I dont have the issue, worst with the OEM,LOL But I already have the roof rails on my CS and moved it to the CTT, so I jsut bought the crossbar and oem ski rack.
Mine is fine, but the roof transport is unbearable,IMO.
