IXTAbox is more than just a skibox

IXTAbox started with a problem. A Tesla Model X, that could not take a roof box. So we went looking for a solution, and we could not find a very good one. So we decided to make our own. The best way to carry skis on it, without putting them inside the cabin, was to use the tow hook. That is how IXTAbox started: as a ski box.

Through many iterations and revisions, we are where we are today. The thing that has changed the most along the way is how people use it. The box that was once just a ski box for family ski trips has become part of daily life, ours and a lot of our customers', and it gets used for far more than skiing.

Winter is still an obvious use

Skiing, snowboarding and every other winter activity are still the first things most people think of. And winter trips are heavy on luggage, with or without an IXTAbox. You are packing thicker clothes and more layers, plus ski boots, snow gear, skis and poles, and maybe cross-country poles too. There is no way all of that fits in the boot if you are travelling as a family of three, four or five. It gets worse with little kids, because their stuff takes up a lot of room.

If you want a list to work from, our pre-season ski checklist covers what to sort out before the first trip.

It turned into an everyday accessory

Apart from the two or three family vacations, we realised IXTAbox becomes part of daily life. You can use it for golf, camping, garbage runs, gift shopping, grocery shopping, anything. Loading your stuff at waist height changes the way you use your car, and it changes it a lot.

With the winter season coming up, we wish you a safe journey and a very happy holiday. And if you are looking to add more space to your car, have a look at IXTAbox.
