Freeride FK – This revolutionary all-mountain shape provides the best of both worlds. It has a raised camber platform through the inserts to retain high-speed edge hold through variable terrain, and elevated contact points to land and float in powder.

Flat Kick Technology – With Flat Kick design technology CAPiTA has tightened the profile radius that blends the shoulders of the board into the tip and tail height. This is a key area that influences the tempo and feel of turn initiation. With traditional larger tip and tail arcs, the loaded camber contributes to a board's acceleration into a turn. On reverse camber boards the contact points are elevated, removing this camber contribution. As a result, the same traditional tip and tail radii would make the board feel sluggish. Specialized Flat Kick tip and tail arcs combined with elevated reverse camber contact points achieve the ideal tempo into turns. This allows you to have the shorter effective edge of a forgiving, easy to ride, reverse camber snowboard that is still responsive and quick during edge-to-edge transitions.

7 Flex Rating – 7, Perfect for freestyle and all-mountain riding.

New Age Directional – CAPiTA's New Age Directional sidecut is a progressive sidecut which incorporates a reverse sidecut arc in the midsection of the board. Due to a reduced effective edge as a result of hybrid camber shapes, this reverse camber arc provides a point of contact to retain control throughout the turn. .5" Setback stance.

Death Grip – Edge tech between the bindings for extra edge hold in icy conditions.

Panda Core™ – The PANDA Core™ was built for a high performance return of energy in a lightweight and versatile core. From razor sharp turns on demand, to huge ollies, this core was engineered with all-terrain technical freestyle riding in mind. Comprised of our P2 Superlight core and enhanced with inlaid Bamboo Power Rods, this core is strong enough to meet the needs of the TFA customer while saving considerable weight.

Custom Weave – The CUSTOM WEAVE configuration features a resin/glass application borrowed from the marine industry, which yields much stronger and rigid qualities allowing the board to have decreased wood core thickness. The main focus is to save wood core weight by increasing resin performance. The biaxial/triaxial fiberglass combination creates more response while increasing strength and durability.

4 x 30 Basalt Fiber V-Tech – Originating from solidified volcanic lava, basalt is an abundant resource long known for it's thermal properties, strength, and durability. When carefully oriented into the board, this natural material helps you increase power and pop while creating a damp, clam ride.

Full ABS Sidewalls

Wax Infused Rotation Sintered Base – These bases are created by taking pellets of ultra-high-molecular-weight Polyethylene and compressing them through heat and pressure. The minuscule spaces left behind absorb wax and allow for extended periods of high speed shredding as the wax wicks to the surface while you ride. This prevents your base from drying out and keeps the surface feeling freshly waxed throughout the day. Properly maintained sintered bases are fast, durable, and are consistently the dominant first choice of pro snowboarders worldwide.

Die-Cut Base – Base color displayed may not be available. Base colors may vary.

Multitech™ Silkscreen

Titanal Base Inlay – Titanal 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.

360˚ Steel Edges

4x2 Inserts

Stage IV Duraflex™ Base - Lifetime Warranty – Exclusive to Union, this innovative material delivers peak levels of strength and performance.

Carbon-Injected Dupont™ Zytel® ST – The highest-quality nylon, used on all Union baseplates, results in strength, safety, security and the confidence of a lifetime warranty.

Injected EVA Bushings – The bushings dampen underfoot vibrations to promote a more comfortable ride and a smooth, even board flex with no dead spots.

Prepreg Carbon – Light, strong, and ultra responsive - Don't be fooled by "fake carbon." Prepregnated carbon laminated with Epoxy resin is a technology known to achieve one of the best strength-to-weight-ratios.

Shift-on-the-Fly Forward Lean – Quick and easy to use, adjust the forward lean with a simple flip of a knob then slide it to wherever you want and re-lock it. Easily done while waiting in those pesky lift lines.

Ultra Grip™ Toe Straps – Multiple position options, with a thermoplastic anti-slip material - keeps you locked in and on point.

3D Strap Core – Streamlined design provides a seamless boot interface with lateral freedom for maximum tweakage. Extremely lightweight and durable.

Toe Cup Design – Holds better to your boots for consistent control and also moves vertically for multiple boot-to-strap positions.

Magnesium Buckles – A high-tech manufacturing process produces a material that is extremely strong, durable and mega-lightweight. Plus, magnesium is recyclable and is one of the most abundant materials on the planet.

Toe Buckle System – Multi-positional options with open Ultra Grip™ Design

CNC Machined 3D Heelcups – Process removes material to reduce weight, maintain strength and eliminate drag on steep terrain.

Universal Disks – Compatible with any traditional 4x4 mounting system and 3-hole board patterns. Channel Compatible Discs are available separately from Union to fit Burton snowboards with The Channel.

Grade 8.8 Hardware – The 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.
