Product Details

Rocker Type

Hybrid Camber ProfileHybrid Camber Profile boards take full advantage of the benefits of traditional camber, zero camber, and reverse camber. This next generation design allows you to get the pop and response of a cambered board with all the predictability and easy turn initiation of zero camber or reverse camber shapes.

Flex

5.5(1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Core

DS Select RFC Sustainable Dual Core™Poppy lightweight poplar core combined with beech stringers for increased power and durability.

Laminates

Carbon Fiber BeamsKnown for its rigidity, high tensile strength, low weight, high temperature tolerance, and low thermal expansion, Carbon Fiber is one of the most popular materials used in today's high performance applications. This lightweight, strong material, when molded into a snowboard, increases power and response while remaining ultralight.

Dynaweave™ FiberglassThe Dynaweave™ configuration features triaxial fiberglass on the top of the core and biaxial fiberglass beneath, creating more response while increasing strength and durability. Combine this layup with a specialized resin and one of the many additives CAPiTA has available and you get a high performing board tailored to meet your style of riding.

Plant Based Evo ResinLow temperature requirement, consistent and durable output. This resin system has a bio-content of 60% renewable, agricultural raw materials. It is plant based that does not compete with primary food sources and is produced with no waste or green house emissions.

Sidewalls

Fortress™ Kevlar Bound SidewallsSidewalls are bonded by a Kevlar "S" wrap from the top of the sidewall to the underside of the fore. For 2016/2017, a new kevlar shape provides an even lighter weight technology that binds the sidewall and core material together like no other.

Base

Wax Infused Enduro™ BaseThis base material strikes a unique and sought after balance between high performance and low maintenance. These bases are highly wax absorbent and allow longer time periods between waxing sessions.

Titanal Base InlayTitanal is a high strength hardened aluminum wrought alloy with excellent compression strength to weight ratios. A perfect top core structural reinforcement, these 20mm Titanal struts resist longitudinal compression.

Union T-100 Snowboard Bindings 2017

Without cutting any corners, the Union T-100 Snowboard Bindings focus high-performance features into a package that won't sink you for all you've got. The combination of a Stage V baseplate and a burly Duraflex™ Minidisk creates an honest connection to the board with plenty of flex and edge control. Union's also thrown in a lightweight and freestyle oriented CP1 Highback and Injected Aluminum Buckles for a burly setup that can be taken anywhere from the sidecountry to the park. Like all Union bindings, the Union T-100 Snowboard Bindings feature a Limited Lifetime baseplate warranty that ensures you're investment to shred is a sound one.

Product Details

Baseplate

Dual Density EVA BushingTwo separate bushing densities provide incredible dampening and true board flex. One supplying durability, the other providing comfort.

Stage V BaseplateBacked with a Lifetime Warranty, the Stage V Duraflex Base is designed for riders looking for stripped down performance that won't break the bank.

Duraflex™ CB MD BaseplateThe Mini Disk baseplate is designed to minimize dead spots between the binding-to-board contact area to a mere 5%. In translation, the minimized binding interface allows your board to flex naturally, boosting its performance and durability.

Mini Disk (MD)A minimal contact footprint allows for even board flex and is compatible with the 4x2 mounting pattern, as well as The Channel from Burton.

Highback

CP1 HighbackDeveloped and tested by Gigi Ruf. Incredibly light, extremely comfortable, and outstanding for all types of snowboarders and every type of terrain.

Straps

3D Symmetric Direct Connect StrapsSymmetric Direct Connect ankle strap system features a multi-layer strap core that evenly distributes pressure across the top of the foot. They hold you in, but don't hold you back.

Buckles

Injected Aluminum BucklesUnion's Aluminum Buckles are the perfect combination of function and reliability. Strengthened with springs and a long lasting ratchet mechanism for easy, fast ratcheting power.

Additional Features

Extruded 3D Aluminum HeelcupMade of extremely durable extruded aluminium, designed to minimize toe drag while optimizing heel hold.

Canted Gas PedalsIdeal for riders using a wide stance, Canted Gas Pedals supply extra leverage for ollie power. Canting also allows the ankle and knee joints to be aligned, alleviating pain.

Grade 8.8 HardwareThe most commonly used hardware is made from "mild steel" that has a property class of only 4.6. Considering how much stress a binding is under, Union uses only the strongest steel on ALL hardware.

Union offers a lifetime warranty on baseplates and heelcups. If you break, or even crack your baseplate or heelcup during riding, they'll replace it for life. Guaranteed. All other parts are covered for 1 year from date of purchase.
