Low rack for Kayaks for Bak x4s?

[VASki]

I have a Bak Revolver X4S bed cover. Can I use a low rack to carry a pair of 10 foot kayaks? This would mean that about 5 feet of the kayaks would stick out behind the tailgate. I’d like to have a system where I can carry the kayaks in the summer and skis in the winter. Any suggestions for racks/crossbars?

I have no affiliation with Voodoo but this is one solution I’m considering. (12/05 EDIT: Attached a link that works)

Currently I just throw them in the bed, haven't traveled more then 50 miles with it that way though. I've seen on the hardtop setup, which I'd considered for someday when I actually take them on a camping trip. The bed low rack wouldn't work with my current tonneau cover, although if it did does it matter if it hangs past the end? I haul lumber sticking out several feet all the time down the highway. As long as I've flagged it and secured it never an issue.

I carry my kayaks on my Gladiator using an EZ Rec Rack system. The base is mounted to the top of my RLD canopy

The kayak rack itself resides in a detachable mount that rolls into the base from the back

My TUWE rack is amazing. I use it at cab height all the time & strap my 15' inflatable kayak on top and it is adjustable to lower to mid-height, if & when you wish. I also have a Truxedo Tonneau cover which works great with the Tuwa. The customer service at Tuwa is top notch. Here's how it all looks.

Do you have any photos of the 8” version? How far open did the X4S roll open?
