SUBJECT
“Status quo” is a dirty word at Union Binding Company. We believe that if you aren’t moving forward, you’re falling behind. So as we put together this year’s dealer book, we bring special attention to how our bindings transform. As a manufacturer, as a brand, and as part of the snowboarding community, we do what competitors say can’t be done: we transform the dynamic between the snowboarder and the snowboard.

INDEX REF. SECTION
Transformation is what Union is all about. We’ve gone from a small core snowboarding brand to the global leader in snowboard bindings. We’ve done the big things by focusing on the small things—like developing and pioneering lightweight materials, specifically designed to take abuse in freezing temperatures. Sometimes the difference is just a gram here or slightly stronger there, and the overall result quickly stacks up. It’s not about being the biggest brand, it’s about being the best brand.

Redesigned and retooled, the Expedition series continues to evolve and advance. Focused on the actual “snowboarding” part of splitboarding, the Expedition has quickly gained traction with riders who value ride ability and natural board feel.
Exclusive to Union - Forged Carbon is the lightest / strongest material known to man, and delivers peak performing heelside response and board control. Nothing else comes close.
This is the “bread and butter” or "meat and potatoes" of the Union offering. Regardless of your budget or performance needs, you will find the best binding in each price point here.
UCH customized product is offered in limited numbers, and showcases our appreciation and respect for our like-minded peers and heroes - both inside and outside of the snowboarding industry.
Durability, fit and comfort are just a few of the reasons why our women's collection has been such a success. From weekend warriors to Olympic Champions, an incredible amount of girls choose Union.
Smaller and softer versions of what the pros ride, the Youth Series retain key fundamentals that put Union on the map. They are also the most adjustable kid's bindings on the market.

If you’ve previously had issues with hardware loosening up, it’s most likely because your Loctite wore off. New for 19/20, all Union bindings come equipped with Lock Washers.

USER FEEDBACK
UPDATED PARTS
Nowhere is our commitment to product progression and value better expressed than in our all-new Expedition 2.0. Completely new from top to bottom, this category symbolizes our focus and dedication.
From designing the first phase of Expedition, to pro team testing, market launch, retail success and end consumer usage – we have collected an incredible amount of feedback for not only improvements, but new ideas as well.
Big accomplishments happen by focusing on all of the small details. The New Expedition has a completely new look aesthetically, but it's the sum of its parts is what makes the difference. Below are some of the upgrades to the new system.
“For the first time in my 20 years split boarding, I finally have the surfy board Feel on the way down that you deserve from earning your turns” - Shane Johnsen Tribute Board Shop, Nelson, BC Spring-Loaded Pin

All-New Touring Bracket
All-New Split Disk
“The first time I rode the Expedition bindings I was blown away, because they perform and function just like my normal Unions, but they also tour in a very simple way.” - Forrest Shearer, Jones Snowboards Pro
"This is the first binding we have fully developed with our new HP 3D printer. This allows us to adjust the 3D drawings during the day, print new prototypes at night and test those directly on snow the next morning. This new process has completely changed the way we develop bindings." - Pier Patriarca, Union Binding Engineer

Forged Facts
BEHIND THE TECH
FORGED PRESS
FORGED CARBON
“Forged Carbon is a technology developed specifically for engineering complex three-dimensional geometries that need to resist stresses of variable type, direction, and magnitude.
FC HIGHBACKS
When we started this project, I was shocked by the intensity of the loads to which professional riders like Travis and Gigi subject these bindings.
Forged Carbon Highbacks deliver peak performing heelside response and control - The lightest and strongest on the market.
Forged technology provides the best solution in terms of weight, stiffness and strength.”
STRENGTH-2-WEIGHT
-PAOLO FERABOLI, Ph.D. Director, Automobili Lamborghini
Our forging process makes it possible to form complex shapes into a single piece. Compared to traditional laminated carbon, Forged Carbon fibers are self-oriented, producing a finished product lighter and stronger than titanium.

The Strata A NEW SNOWBOARD BINDING DAMPENING SYSTEM
MULI-LAYER FLEX PROFILE
GAS PEDAL Thermoformed EVA gas pedals are the first layer of the Strata's dampening system. This layer provides extra cushion for hard landings and eats up board chatter.
BASEPLATE The Stage 6 Duraflex ST base has been engineered to increase nylon material where needed for strength, and remove nylon material where possible for weight reduction. Backed by Union's lifetime warranty.
SUB CHASSIS Utilizing a softer material, the Sub Chassis connects the base with the Fused Vaporlite bottom bushing for durability and connection.
BUSHING OTE Fused Vaportlite bushings set new standards for cushioning and vibration dampening. Fused Vaporlite is the future of precise manufacturing.

Scott Stevens Top Sheet
Scott Stevens Contact Pro L.E. If you’ve ever seen one of Scott Steven’s video parts, the first thing you’ll notice is his attention to detail. Even if it’s the weirdest trick on a spot nobody’s ever thought of hitting, Scott won’t be finished till it’s perfect. The same goes for his snowboard sticker jobs. At first glance, his topsheet seems like a mess, but everything is there for a reason.

Duraflex CB
Duraflex ST
Duraflex
Hex Direct Connect
Exoframe 2.0 w/ Hinge
FormaElite Direct Connect
Blended with carbon fiber, Duraflex CB is lighter and considerably more stiff than typical fiberglass injected nylon parts.
Simply put, Duraflex ST is the same material as regular Duraflex, but with increased glass for more response without the weight. Designed for cold temperatures.
Duraflex material was specifically engineered to maintain consistent flex in a wide range of cold temperatures. Exclusive to Union for snowsports products.
Contouring perfectly around the outside of your boots, Hex Ankle Straps are incredibly durable, and light as a feather.
Featured on the FF, this ankle strap is the evolution of the original ExoFrame, with a new shape and hinging system that allows for easier entry. Extremely responsive.
Designed by Travis Rice, the Forma Elite Ankle Strap fits his riding style and minimal approach towards the perfect binding.
Forged Carbon
Forged Hybrid HB
Fused Vaporlite +
Classic Pro
Forma
ExoFrame
Exclusive to UNION, Forged Carbon exceeds the strength requirements of injected plastic tenfold. Lighter is only better when it's stronger.
Duraflex Nylon and Forged Carbon combine to create a flex profile that compliments Travis Rice's aggressive riding style.
20% lighter than the original and still just as waterproof, durable and vibration canceling.
A wider and more traditional design, the Classic Pro Ankle Strap compliments the Force model perfectly – A time honored legend of a snowboard binding.
New and improved, the design of the Forma Ankle Strap produces strength and rapid response on the outside, fit and pillowed comfort on the inside.
Redesigned and upgraded, the all new Exoframe Ankle Strap functions as a suspension system for your feet. Improved comfort and much lighter than before.
OTE Fused Vaporlite
MD Thermoformed EVA

Classic Lite
Hexgrip/Ultra Grip Straps
OTE Fused Vaporlite Bushing System sets new standards for vibration dampening and natural board flex. Industry first.
Multidensity Bushings sustain their function each season - unlike urethane, rubber or other materials that change color and become brittle over time.
The Full Bottom Bushing system allows for natural canting, incredible vibration dampening and a surfy feel.
Pre-Curved Multi-Layer Strap Core conforms to the boot and eliminates foot pain. Easy adjustment and set up.
Once featured on our most expensive models, the Classic Lite Ankle Strap is a prime example of how “trickle down” technology works.
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.
Thermoformed EVA
Extruded 3D Aluminum
Magnesium
Secure-Lock
Minidisk
Universal Disk
Shock absorbtion saves your heels and promotes a true and even board flex.
Designed for optimum heel hold and minimization of drag, Union 3D Extruded Aluminum heelcups are the strongest in the business.
This Union exclusive process produces a material four times the strength of aluminum with only half the weight. Easy in, easy out.
Toe strap adjustment has been redesigned and reinforced with double the connection strength, thanks to the new pin system.
The evolution of our innovative concept of minimizing dead spots taken one step further - a mere 5% binding-to-board contact area. 4x2 and Channel compatible.
Compatible with 4x4, 4x2 and the channel. The Universal disk provides increased response and a locked in connection. NOT COMPATIBLE WITH 3-HOLE
Aluminum
Grade 8.8 Steel
Non-Stick Gas Pedal
Split Flad
Push-Pin Flad
Classic Flad
Fast in and fast out - the new mechanism combined with Union aluminum is superior to any binding buckle on the market - with the exception of Union Magnesium.
The strongest steel available on the market - our use of Grade 8.8 represents our commitment of delivering the strongest and most reliable bindings on the market today.
Fused Vaporlite Non-stick gas pedals shed water and snow like nothing you’ve experienced before. Gone are the days of icy build up under your boots.
Easily switch from hike mode to ride mode on the Union Expedition. Quicker change over time means more snowboarding for you.
Rotate center of FLAD 90*, push and slide to your preferred setting. Only available on the Strata and Legacy.
Pull the lever away from the highback and quickly adjust your forward lean angle to suit the terrain in front of you.
