Roof Racks for Corollas?

Hey everyone... I have a 1997 Corolla DX and I want to get a roof rack for it to put my skiis on in the winter and my bike on in the summer. What is available? Do I need 2 seperate ones? Also, can you also put snowboards on the ones for skiis? Some of my friends snowboard and we are going to take turns driving up to the ski place every week. Thanks everyone!

Yakima and Thule make racks for almost all cars. Check out yakima.com or thule.com
One of them use round bars and the other uses square or oval bars or something. Other than that, I don't think there's much difference between the two companies.

I believe that most carriers that hold skis can also accomodate snow boards. Check out the above sites to makke sure.

I bought a new bike rack from this company called Rocky Mounts for my 96 corolla wagon and it works great. It was really easy to put on my factory racks and it didn’t require any special help. I highly suggest The Noose bike rack that they offer since it was only $85 - works awesome and looks great in a variety of colors to match your ride. It was the only rack that actually fit on with no problems at all! Their website is rockymounts.com

Try thule that's what I have and it works great. Like what was said earlier the racks can accomodate the different things they just use different attachments to hold your stuff. These things aren't cheap for my thule rack it cost around $400. But they come in handie
