I don't normally comment on videos but i had to give you a massive thank you. The half twist on the straps made all the noise go away even on motorways. Thank you so much 😊
Hi, I tell this to everyone who says "omg", which is a lot of people. You don't have to misuse the word "God" when you speak. You can just as well write, "You just saved out sanity! We almost threw out paddle boards off the car!!! 😊" and convey the same message. Rest assured that people will understand what you say perfectly without the using the word "God" as though it's some insignificant expression one can use to intensify their message. Nowadays most people respond to even the most gentle of correction with curses and death threats. They don't know that it's possible to respond with, "Oh, I didn't even know I said it. Thanks for letting me know. It's just the way all my friends and family speak so I guess I just picked it up without even realizing it. I'll try not to say it from now on." I don't want to assume that you're one of the people who respond with curses and death threats, but because so many people are, let me say that there's no need to curse and threaten me with death. I've already received those kinds of responses from people and they don't work on me. I still try to help people speak without misusing the words "God", "Jesus" and "Holy".
So happy to buy a new kayak yesterday, strapped it to the top of the Ute, noise started from 40 kph, travel 110kph, the noise was unbelievable! Happen to have earplugs and put them on, noise still unbelievable, feel like driving a F1 car. Grateful to found your video, can’t wait to try your method. Thanks
After getting a huge headache from traveling with two kayaks for 3 hours yesterday, I goggled how to fix the noise and came across your video and sent it to my boyfriend so he can fix this horrible noise and we can have a pleasant drive to and from the river.
I just had the problem and I thought is the my canoe shape caused it and it make me worried it will explode the whole trip. Turned out to be this simple thing
Someone told me to use duct tape to wrap the straps but that gets sticky and messy after a while and you have to line up the section of tape just right each time. I’m going to try this tomorrow. Thanks.
I think I’ve had the same issue thing my surf board to car. Just to confirm, would you describe that sound similar to a propeller plane or a loud exhaust? If so, then I’m def gonna take your advice! Thanks yo!
You folks complaining about noise from little straps on car roof you want try listening to noise from 10 metre straps on Mobile home in winter west coast Ireland 🙄 will try hack in the Morning Thanks 👍
Hi Bill, thx for the videos. I asked a question on painting video you did a while back but u havent seen it. I have vinyl wrap kitchen cabinets that I want to paint. I saw your video and would like to know if I'm safe to use the Zinsser primer then an aquanamel over it. Been looking at haymes ultratrim enamel and taubmans. I see u used Bristol from memory. I'm going to try spraying with a Wagner gun. Do u only ever use that water based enamel you used? Thx in advance
Hi, sorry I haven’t seen your previous question. Regarding paints, I generally prefer water based paints ( faster dry time, easy to clean and low smell) particularly if I’m spraying. Depending on the texture and condition of the vinyl Zinsser followed by an enamel paint Should be fine but it’s always a good idea to do a small test in a hidden area first. Make sure the vinyl is all intact and not peeling away 👍
@@billshowto hi Bill thx for the reply. No worries. I watched a video you did in Nov 18 and u used British paints H20 enamel. Would u still use this brand as I thought it was the cheaper brother to dulux. The vinyl is all in excellent condition. We just want a colour change. Regards

You’re very welcome 👍👍👍
This trick saved my trip. Thank you. The noise was so loud I almost turned around. A simple twist and all was quiet.
👍👍

OMG!!! You just saved our sanity! We almost threw our paddle boards off the car!!! 😊

You’re very welcome 👍
This really works!!!! I was worried I would have to leave my canoe behind as the noise was absolutely unbearable!!
Thanks for the tip!
You’re welcome 👍

Did it work for you mate?
Game changer! Saved my 13 hour trip, thank you!!
AMAZING . . I was thinking I'd made a huge mistake to buy a kayak and try to take it a long distance!! THANK YOU > > THANK YOU!!
You’re welcome 👍
This is going to save my ears! Can't wait to try this when were finally able to take the kayak out again. Thanks mate!
You’re welcome 👍
Thank you so much, we couldn’t deal with that sound much longer!
You're welcome👍
saved our life, you sir deserve a noble piece prize.
You’re welcome 👍
Oh man that saved me a lot of hassle, I was trying to add wedges of foam which didn’t work at all.
Thank you so much!!! The kids and I were paranoid of my husbands strap job with the canoe but this little trick worked 😅
You have revolutionized my travel experience bless you sir
The vibration sound didn't come through very well but thank god for that, since I've heard it more than enough times in my Jeep. Thanks for the tip!
You’re welcome 👍
Amazing hack! Thank you 😃

Simple, elegant -- good stuff. Thanks, mate!
I knew this (as a past truck driver) but great job for those that didnt know 👍
Agree. I'm not a truck driver but I figured this out myself as soon as I had high noise levels from my straps. I like that this video exists. 👍🏻
Amazing! I've been thinking the opposite, nice and flat to cut through the wind. So counterintuitive, but you proved it. Thanks 👍
Thanks for this! Our several hour drive with a canoe just got a lot quieter!
Amazing simple trick! Thanks Bill!
This is amazing! Physics for the win
Another great video, and awesome trick to deal with the leftover strap

Thank you. I have my canoe strapped over cabin with foam blocks. Noise was horrible until now!

Just bought a canoe and the 45 min drive home was murder on the ears, tried this and it worked wonders.
I love you man.
Thanks buddy

Life saver
That’s cool thanks
Should have looked at this a week ago. Drove with 2 kayaks on the roof from Melbourne to Adelaide. Was not enjoyable at all!

@@billshowto hi Bill thx for the reply. No worries. I watched a video you did in Nov 18 and u used British paints H20 enamel. Would u still use this brand as I thought it was the cheaper brother to dulux. The vinyl is all in excellent condition. We just want a colour change. Regards
I use that product as it’s cheaper and available in a paint and prime all in one product
@@billshowto thanks mate
Better be careful, could get a ticket for this video (using phone while driving)
I wasn’t using my phone but thanks for the reminder 👍
Does it matter which way u twist the straps?
No 👍
@@billshowto thanks!
More hacks than Kevin Mitnick
Haven't heard that name since 90s early 00s. Free Kevin!
I’m currently sitting in my dads car as we drive our canoe 2 hours on the top of a civic. I’ll let you know if I make it out alive
Yo! Science.
I love you
If any higher power asks me who I want to bless when I pass sway I’ll make sure to keep your name in mind
Didn't work for me
