hello i am new to this, but every thing i find on amazon seems to have some faulty crapy material
i am looking for something that i can use easy for set up and just unstrap it off the car when done,

Dee - for hard SUPs (absent car roof rack) the simplest is just a pair of straps with a simple cam ( not full on ratchet cams) + two hard foam pads.
But with an inflatable SUP, all you would need are the straps.
Unless you need elevation off the car roof to avoid an antenna or the like.
I use Dakine straps.

Thanks man, NRS seem to have everything i like the foam blocks that will work, and i drive 2015 Chrysler 200, NRS 9' strap will work right?

I’d probably recommend 12’ length. It gives you a bit more to play with if you’re ever using them on a different car. And you’ll need some length to tie off the end.
