    Thinking of getting our own set of ski for the family instead of renting every times. But will S5 ski pass through able to carry 4 set of ski? or I should get the ski rack?

    You'll fit 4 pairs of skis, but not without a seat down (which means somebody is riding on the roof).

    Ski rack is where it's at.

    At least four snowboards comfortably with the seats down.

    I second the rack idea; I may be the minority here, but I happen to love the winter-mode-rack on an S5 (or any Audi for that matter).
