UPDATE 1/15/11: Yet another option for the Juke has been developed by the pro’s at Rack Attack! Check out this 2011 Nissan Juke with the ProRack Whispbar system…
Juke Whispbar
This setup utilized the Whispbar S3 along with Fitting Kit 323. Note that this is a custom and permanant option! Take a look below at the very low profile mounting blocks. These are the only parts that are permanently affixed to the vehicle.

Finally, we added the Yakima Fat Cat 6 ski/snowboard rack. Note that the rack is ‘jacked up’ on one side…this is so snowboard bindings on the upside-down boards don’t hit the roof. It is not always necessary to lift the rack like this, but the customer wanted to start this way just to be safe. Flattening out the rack is simply adjusting two screws on each carrier.

It has finally arrived! For those of you who have been waiting for the the Nissan Juke to come stateside, it is here and we had the opportunity to rack it. The customer needed a rack system to get his snowboards to the mountain and we had solutions.
2011 Nissan Juke Ready for the Slopes
Either a simple-to-install clip fit with Thule’s 480 towers (for a more stylish option upgrade to Thule’s Aero bars), 50″ Load Bars, Fit Kit 1619 and a 4-pack of locks or if you are lucky enough to live close to one of our retail stores we can custom install a rack system. UPDATE 1/27/11: Yakima now has a Q tower fit. Several trunk rack options exists now as well. And Curt has a class I 1.25″ hitch! Give us a call or check out our online fit guides at www.rackattack.com for more information.
It's loaded up and has one destination: Mountain!
Our customer opted for the custom installation, making removal and installation of the rack a snap! Add Yakima’s Fat Cat 4 or 6 ski and snowboard carrier, your friends, one weekend, a mountain and you have a recipe everybody wants!!

Summary: This turbo all wheel drive crossover is the perfect vehicle to get you to the slopes and we have a couple of great options for racks.
Pro’s: The custom install gives you easy install and removal of the base rack system.
Con’s: Notice the roof sloping up? You have to take this into consideration for longer boats and cargo boxes that typically work best with larger bar spreads.
