LowRise™ Rocker – LowRise™ rocker just slightly lifts the contact points out of the snow and has a nearly flat zone under foot. These twin rides are full of smooth-riding fun.

Feel-O-Meter: 3 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – This freestyle flex is great for jibs butters and getting airborne. Ride's Feel-O-Meter rating is adjusted year to year to align with current industry standards. A board unchanged from last year may receive a new feel number this year if the industry scale shifts.

Twin – Completely symmetrical with identical tip and tail measurements and flex pattern

Foundation Tuned™ Core – Tip-to-tail wood core with proven durability that retains pop and flex: Mixing natural wood with high-energy "uppers" and vibration absorbing "downers" creates a core tuned for maximum snap and feel.

Biaxial Glass – 90° and 0° angles are fun and forgiving. Ride's unique glass designs are flatter and more consistent; therefore they are stronger with no gaps or stretching as can be found in woven glass.

P-Tex Sidewalls – Durable, strong, and easy to repair.

Fusion 1500™ Base – The industry standard, it's wax absorbing and easy to repair. Ride invented and owns the Fusion Base™ Technology, in which material is formed together for a solid, fast Ride every time.

Quick-Adjust Forward Lean – Tool-free-adjuster allows on-the-fly foward lean adjustment

Direct-Connect Strap System – Simply and directly connect your straps for a simple and quick strap that won't come undone.

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

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 goes through, Union uses only the highest-strength steel, with a property class of 8.8.

Extruded Anodized Aluminum Heelcups – The strongest and most versatile aluminum heelcup on the market, extruded aluminum comes out 100% pure and maintains its true shape no matter how much wear and tear you inflict. Also, every Union heelcup undergoes an anodizing process—reinforcing the already bombproof apparatus with 30% more strength.

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.
