The 2026 Holda Kit: A Sprinter Van Rack Built to Last for Generations
Our preference is to avoid doing something twice. Yet making adjustments to a quality tool for better fit and different jobs is fine. That tool is a Holda Kit Surf and Paddleboard rack.
After many versions, we believe our 2026 is our best ever. Strong, light, adjustable, and lockable. When mounted correctly, no vibration or humming at high speeds. No bouncing apart on the washboard. Just doing its job, holding your gear. That's a Holda Kit van or camper rack.
Most products have a usable life 10, 20, 50+ years before bearings, motors, bushings, and seals wear or thin from exposure to the elements. Not a Holda Kit. Our aluminum and stainless steel components could easily outlast you.
Take a look at our rack and invest in a piece of equipment that can be passed down for generations. In the end, every Holda Kit can eventually be melted down and recycled into new products such as airplanes, boats, bikes, autos, or new Holda Kits.

Holda Kits are the creation of a whitewater expedition frame builder who designed, built, and tested gear boats for over 20 years. These boats continue to run the West's largest whitewater rivers such as the Colorado, Salmon, and Snake.
Our van and camper kits are similarly tested on Western State Back Country Discovery Routes (BDR), as well as other Western remote and rugged roads. We also cruise fully loaded on Western Interstates that can be 80 mph and subject to very high winds.
