Alpine V1 Directional + Flat Kick Tech – Features mid-body camber with a flat tail and a reverse cambered nose. This allows for tons of pop and stability on hard pack while increasing float and landing power, improving the rider's performance in deep snow. The camber runs longer in the tail, providing extra power for the ascent or for larger riders drawn to a dedicated wide series.

Flex – 6.5 (1 Soft- 10 Stiff)

Directional – 0.8" Setback

New Age Progressive Death Grip – DEATH GRIP™ is a design theory that incorporates a reverse sidecut arc in the midsection of the board. This reverse camber arc provides a point of contact to apply pressure and retain control throughout the turn in both freestyle and freeride settings.

Thermopolymer Starship Core – Utilizing an advanced electronic sorting system allows us to select mega-premium, reforestation certified, Poplar graded by weight and grain consistency. Comparable to Paulownia in strength to weight ratio, this core retains the poppiness of Poplar, and then achieves a signature feel by adding bonded post-consumer recycled Thermopolymer channels to form an advanced hybrid core. This mega-premium core will blast you into space and beyond.

Glass + Resin – Pure Megacarbon Marine Grade Epoxy Resin

Inlaid Alloy Skid Plates

Megadrive XT + Moonshot Omni-Tune – The MOONSHOT OMNI-TUNE™ is an aftermarket high-performance race-base structure that wicks water from your base at a 45-degree angle making these boards super fast to the lift line or to the finish line

S10 Halo Duraflex XB – Two-Layer Baseplate construction allows two individual layers: the Core [1] and the Frame [2]. Each layer has the possibility of using a unique material and stiffness to achieve the desired ride feel of the binding.

XB Halo Baseplate Frame – The XB Halo Base Frame is lightest baseplate Union has ever created, while still maintaining the mandatory strength-to-weight ratios needed to pass Union’s strict durability tests. The frame also plays the critical role of connecting the baseplate core, bottom bushing, heelcup, ankle and toe straps together. Made with partially sustainable carbon injected Duraflex XB Nylon.

Forged Carbon DCS Baseplate Core – The all-new Forged Carbon DCS Baseplate Core is stiff, responsive, and ultra-lightweight. Through extensive rounds of R&D the Union Lab was able to reduce the baseplate height by 10% getting you as close to the topsheet as possible. This baseplate layer allows for the fastest possible transfer of energy from the rider to the snowboard that Union has ever achieved. Made possible by Union exclusive Forged Carbon.

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.

Extended 3D Aluminum Heelcup

Ankle Strap – Hybrid 2.0

TS 6.0 Toe Strap – TS 6.0 toe straps keep you locked in for the ride down without letting you know they're there. A new, shorter buckle base helps to reduce weight and pressure points. Easily adjust to any boot with the quick turn of a lightweight titanium screw. This is the lightest toe strap on the market.

Ratchets – Magnesium S1 w/ Aluminum Base

Direct Connect System – Union’s all-new Direct Connect System is just that — 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.
