Flex:
Flex Rating: 6 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff ) - Medium flex that prioritizes responsiveness, comfort, and board feel.
Baseplate:
S10 Halo Duraflex CB with Duraflex CB Core: A new addition to Union's 2027 technology, this baseplate uses a more forgiving carbon-injected Nylon construction to provide a more responsive, lightweight feel in order to keep comfort and support a priority within any terrain. Union's lightest baseplate ever.
Hi-Flex Eva Bushing: More durable and more cushioned than traditional thermoformed EVA. Hi-Flex EVA bushings act as an additional layer of dampening and shock absorption between you and your snowboard and never lose shape over time. Your knees and feet will thank you. This all-new reduced volume bushing design allows the rider to be as close to the topsheet as possible.
Non Stick HP EVA Footbed: Union's non-stick hot press EVA creates a closed cell finish that is 100% waterproof. No more snow and ice build up, keeping you riding in all conditions. Standard hot-press EVA cushioning for reliable shock absorption and underfoot comfort,
engineered to maintain shape over time.
Reduced Baseplate Height: This feature removes some distance between you and your board which results in improved stability and quicker edge-to-edge transition.
Disk: Direct Connect System: A direct connection between you and your snowboard. By fully removing the disk from the baseplate, Union has been able to drastically improve the reaction speed between the rider and the snowboard, increase baseplate strength, and simultaneously reduce the overall weight of the binding. Disks are a thing of the past. This all-new mounting system only relies on two screws and two washers to get the job done. 4x2 compatible.
Highback:
S18 Source Duraflex Blue Highback: Built with an asymmetrical freeride wrap design and Duraflex Blue Eco-Conscious Nylon to provide a perfect balance of strength, responsiveness, and lightweight feel. Made with 90% sustainable raw materials and audited by ISCC and TÜV NORD, Duraflex Blue
is Union’s first partially sustainable nylon created from a mass-balance feedstock.
Integrated 3-Stage FLAD: Easily adjust your highback with a #2 screwdriver.
Straps:
Ankle Strap: Hybrid 2.0 w/ TPE Core: The Hybrid 2.0 ankle strap features a unique V-cut design that flexes naturally with your boot, allowing for powerful forward lean without pressure points. Engineered for light-weight performance and built to last, it delivers the perfect balance of support and comfort. Trusted by the Union team, the Hybrid 2.0 has quickly earned its place as a go-to favorite on everything from park laps to backcountry lines.
Toe Strap: TS 6.0 Dual-Layer Ultra Grip: Separating the exterior toe strap frame and interior rubber grip allows the rubber grip to form fit perfectly to any boot shape on the market today, while a new more integrated toe connector gives the the binding a more finished overall look.
