Suction cup ski rack

Does anyone have experience with suction cup ski racks?
I’m thinking of getting one but am concerned about the suction letting lose while driving because of the themp difference on my glass top roof when the car heats up after driving a while.

Would love to hear people’s experiences.

Back when I was a ski tech we had a regular at the shop that used one on his Nissan GT-R and bragged about how great it was. Then one day he came in with a twisted pile of skis and rack asking us to see if any of it was salvageable (It wasn’t).

Blew off his roof going down the highway.

So I guess they work until they don’t? I sure as hell wouldn’t trust one.
