Right alongside WD-40 and duct tape - one of the most useful things out there, period. I dig the colors and the integrated bumper is clutch. The 13ft is perfect for securing my kayak and misc gear to the roof of the 'Runner.

The straps themselves are pretty nice, however the rubber attachments are cheap. I broke one rubber piece on my first time use on one of 2 straps. Overall they get the job done traveling to the lake.

The Sea to Summit Bomber Tie Down is exactly what it claims to be; a bomber piece of gear. A tie down strap seems like a little detail until your boat goes soaring off the front of your vehicle when the guy in front of you stops short while texting. With these, that isn't going to be the case. The poly strap is heavy duty and doesn't absorb any moisture allowing the burly buckle to hold tight no matter what the conditions may be. The rubber bumper is thick and really protects anything you are strapping down from the buckle. Finally, the elastic strap keeper stops that annoying flapping of the tail end. Overall, couldn't be happier with these. You pull them tight and never have to worry about them moving or watching your boat fly over the hood.

Looks good, but wouldn't use for a piece of mind on expensive toys. The self securing strap is nice.

These looked like great straps, less expensive than Thule or NRS, but the pads behind buckles are flimsily attached and broke off in less than a season of use. I used them to tie down kayaks, and when it's synched down, buckle moves against the pad and eventually breaks it off. They still work; just that buckles are not padded, so I don't use them for strapping down kayaks anymore.

Solid cam strap tie down?like every other well constructed one out there. Two things that may set this apart are the colored cam actions for the different lengths, which help you quickly identify the length you are after and the rubber pad below the cam. The pad helps protect the surface of bags, boats, boards or whatever cargo you are lashing down.

The buckle size makes these easier to use than many styles. The release lever is broad and thumb friendly. Color coding is very helpful in a bag full of straps. I've not used them to tie my board down, more for keeping the cover from flapping and for smaller duty so I can't give a strength comparison. They do feel softer and are a bit wider than other straps I've used but I've not run through any severe tests. I use Kanulock with steel for the main tie downs.

These are nice. I'm glad they come in different and new colors, the blue and metal get boring! I love that these have a self securing strap once you roll it up, keeps things tidy.

These are nice tie-downs. They're pretty tough, and look cooler than others that I own. If you're going to buy them, keep in mind that 6.5 feet it too short to double around a kayak; consider getting the 10 footer for a kayak and the 13 for a canoe.

Bought these for the protective rubber pad under the cam, which has a very strong smell... These are very light-weight (not that its necessary) but the load rating is not very "bomber". They are adequate for strapping the paddle board to the roof, but the NRS cam straps are much more heavy duty if that's important to you.
