Born in New Hampshire, Melissa grew up skiing on the east coast before moving to Utah in 2013 to seek out the so-called best snow on earth. In 2019 she set out to New Zealand to be a ski instructor for the season and loved it so much that she immediately started a second season of instructing upon returning to Park City. Melissa still resides in Utah for most of the year and loves to ski and mountain bike.

When it comes to hitch-mounted ski racks, Tyger’s auto-folding rack is hard to beat from a price-to-feature standpoint. Crafted from sturdy steel with rust resistance, it meets or exceeds OE quality standards, ensuring durability. With the ability to accommodate up to 4 snowboards, 6 pairs of skis, or a combination of 2 boards and 3 pairs of skis, it’s an ideal choice for bigger groups.

This rack fits most vehicles with 1.25″ or 2″ hitch receivers and includes the Tyger Hitch Lock for added security. After using the adjustment knobs, I will say that they aren’t the easiest to use, though the security straps add some extra piece of mind.

The rack plates are height-adjustable to accommodate various ski and snowboard lengths, and the folding feature provides trunk clearance when not in use. Tyger Auto backs this product with a 5-year limited, no-hassle warranty against factory defects.
