If you’re looking for low profile, this is definitely it! Just measure 3x because depending on your car, the length can get in the way of the trunk 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Nice review! Do the surfboards get too hot in the Thule when you park in a sunny spot for the day? Worried about delamination issues on surf camping trips
Yeah good question! If you leave boards inside on the regular, I think delam could be an issue. But for the occasional family trip, you’re good (other than some melted wax)! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Hey @taurusview9 great question! There is additional noise…maybe an extra 10-15% (at highway speeds). It definitely depends on the car you drive and how loud your music is (or isn’t)😉 However, given the extra space and functionality gained, we think it’s a fair trade off!
Hi Samwel! Thanks for the question. We spent a TON of time searching the internets and can’t find a difference. Our best recommendation, give Thule Support a call. We tried but they are closed on the weekend! If you need anything else, give us a shout 🤙🏼
Can't believe it! I haven't thought of sticking my boards in my roofbox. What a genius idea to make the whole family happy
Anytime bruddah Sam!
I own one of this where I can fit two small boards without fins or one with fins. I love this roof box!
Rad! This is brother 2 here so not the one who did the review. I’m curious if you noticed any substantial difference in your mpg?
@@greenroomsurfreviews no difference whatsoever.
Good points covered. Looking to switch to a slimmer low profile box to give space on the other side for a solar panel

My board is always in this box, not a problem whatsoever.
Thank you for your video. Does it make any additional hissing noises when driving at highway speeds?

Whats the difference Between Thule Pulse Alpine Roof Cargo Box Part No. TH613 and Part No. TH613BGL. Are they the same in Construction?
