Vehicle Recovery Boards

Our pick

MAXTRAX MKII

Our pick is the MAXTRAX MKII: its stated 3.4-kilogram weight per board makes the pair lighter to carry than the XTREME.¹²

The MKII measures 1,150 by 330 mm; check that footprint against the space available in your vehicle or mounting setup.¹
Its board body uses fiber-reinforced nylon.³

MAXTRAX XTREME Turquoise Recovery Boards
Choose the MAXTRAX XTREME if you want replaceable hard-anodised alloy teeth. Each board weighs a stated 10 pounds, so account for the heavier pair when carrying and storing it.²

A lighter pair reduces the weight you carry from the vehicle to the stuck wheel.¹² The MAXTRAX MKII is listed at 3.4 kilograms per board.¹
