Product Info
Say it with us: "Forged Carbon"... The Union Ultra Snowboard Bindings utilize the same forged carbon material found on some of Europe's finest sports cars for an epic strength to weight ratio and world-class response. Thanks to the addition of Non-Stick™ EVA cushioning and Vaporlite 2.0 bushings, you can say sayonara to ice buildup on your footbeds and hello to a cushioned and natural ride even in bone-chilling cold. Gigi Rüf and Bryan Iguchi sought uncompromising board flex and feel, and the Union Ultra Snowboard bindings were Union's bleeding edge solution.

Baseplate Stiffness (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – 5
Baseplate
Duraflex CB - MD Base – Duraflex material was specifically engineered to maintain consistent flex in a wide range of cold temperatures. Union has exclusive rights on this brand of nylon, so you wont find it anywhere else. The Duraflex CB Base is lighter and considerably more stiff than typical fiberglass injected nylon parts. 5% binding to board contact allows for even board flex.
Vaporlite 2.0 – Vaporlite 2.0 is the evolution of closed cell foam often featured on high-end running shoes. Super durable and damp in a wide range of temperatures. Highly waterproof.
Non-Stick™ – New for 18/19 is the application of Non-Stick™ coating to Union EVA dampening systems. Gone are the days of getting ice buildup on your footbeds and highbacks.
Highback
Forged Carbon – Exclusive to Union, Forged Carbon exceeds the strength requirements of injected plastic tenfold. Lighter is only better when it is also stronger. Forged Carbon is as light and strong as it gets.
Quick Adjust Forward Lean – Easily adjust the forward lean on the binding to dial in a custom ride.
Straps
Forma Elite Ankle Straps – Designed by Travis Rice, the Forma Elite Ankle Strap fits his riding style and minimal approach towards the perfect binding.
Hexgrip Toe Straps – Multi-positional options and thermoplastic anti-slip material keeps you locked in and on point. Each version has differing amounts of material based on weight.
Buckles
Magnesium 3.0 – The evolution of Union's proven bombproof ratchet system, the Magnesium 3.0 is a lighter and more sleek upgrade.
Additional Features
Extruded 3D Aluminum Heelcups – The rigidity and strength of Extruded Aluminum act like a roll cage on a race car - stiffening the entire chassis. The male/female connection with the base provides a seamless response.
Mini Disk – Compatible with 4x2 and The Channel™.

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Flex Rating
Stiff The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
