Union are obviously keen to get as many of us riding Flite Pro’s as possible.  This is the only explanation why they are fitting Highbacks from last year’s Contact Pro on a £145 binding.  There are some great features not often found on a binding at this price point. 3D tapered straps, Extruded Aluminium Heelcups & dual density EVA bushings are not really supposed to be on bindings that cost less than £150. Good for you, good for us, & good for them. Specification: ·         Flite Base— Dupont™ Zytel® ST ·         Flite Pro Highbacks are based on 2013 Contact Pro Highbacks – Gigi Ruf approved! ·         Shift-on-the-fly Forward lean ·         Dual Density Injected EVA Bushings ·         Extruded Anodised Aluminium Heelcups ·         Symmetric 3D Direct-Connect Strap System ·         3D Tapered Strap Core ·         Injected Aluminium Buckles featuring enhanced toe buckle for 2014 ·         Universal Disks ·           All-New Toe Cup Design ·           Grade 8.8 Hardware ·           Lifetime Warranty Base

The Flite (or ‘very’ ahem, lite) is extremely light, comfortable & a great freestyle binding.  Made for slaying the park, the fairly soft Flite baseplates, & fusion highbacks, will offer you the flexibility & compliance that you need when sliding rails & spinning off kickers.  Pop these on a rocker/hybrid board, crank the stance wiiiiide & stomp every feature on every run (talent not withstanding….) Specification: • Dupont Zytel ST Baseplates • 3d Heelcups • EVA Bushing • Contoured Ankle Straps • All new open Toe Straps • Injected Aluminium Buckles • Tool Free Ankle Strap Adjustment • Flite Fusion Highbacks • All New Universal Binding Disks • Grade 8.8 hardware Base/ Heelcups Dupont Zytel ST Baseplates are constructed of an extremely light blended nylon material. Super strong, yet still incredibly light. They do not become brittle at low (mountain) temperatures, & provide a really usable balance of stiffness (response) & compliance (comfort) 3D Heelcups are extruded from a single block of aluminium. It’s not the cheapest method, but it’s the best process available on Aluminium heelcups, outstanding strength & longevity. EVA Bushing is multi-layer foam padding that sits between your board & your baseplates.  It absorbs vibration & shocks, resulting in a silky smooth, comfy ride from first tracks to last chair. Straps: Contoured Ankle Straps are ergonomically shaped. These comfortably match the profile of your snowboard boot, & when set up correctly using tool free strap adjustment, reduce pinch or pressure points. Open Toe Straps are new for 2014/15. One of the very few criticisms that Union bindings have received over the years, are with the shaping of the toe straps on some models.  New for 2014/15 is an enhanced toe strap profile. Injected Aluminium Buckles are strong & light, & don’t jam up in the cold. Tool Free Ankle Strap Adjustment allows quick & easy adjustment of your ankle strap position while on the hill. Highback: Flite Fusion Highbacks feature multizone flex, i.e. stiffer (and thicker) at the bottom of the highback, where the power is transferred, & flexible & compliant at the top.  They also feature an asymmetric flex patter, with the highbacks being stiffer toward either end of your snowboard.  This gives you enhanced control for butters, ollies & spin tricks, without being brutally stiff & uncomfortable on the inside edge, where support is not really necessary. Discs/hardware: All New Binding Disks are compatible with 4x 2,  4x 4 & Burton’s Channel system.  Grade 8.8 Hardware is a nice touch.  The majority of snowboard binding hardware uses ‘standard’ steel.  In engineering terms, this would be described as ‘mild’ or low tensile steel, as it generally measures 4.6 on a Rockwell scale.  Union use ‘ High Tensile’ steel that measures 8.8 on a Rockwell scale. Bigger the number, the less chance of breaking/stripping/rounding your hardware.   The Flite is similar to the Contact, a versatile binding that lends itself best to lapping the park. It’s probably too soft for heavier/harder riders, & not really ideal f ...

The Flite Pro looks like a much higher priced binding.  The incredible highbacks, superlight Dupont Zytel nylon & Extruded Aluminium heelcups all come together to create an outstanding binding.  Probably better suited to all mountain freestyle than all out freeride, this binding can, nevertheless ride anything well, & in comfort. Specification: • Dupont Zytel ST Baseplates • 3d Heelcups • EVA Bushing • Contoured Ankle Straps • All new open Toe Straps • Injected Aluminium Buckles • Tool Free Ankle Strap Adjustment • Flite Pro Highbacks • All New Binding Disks • Grade 8.8 hardware Base/ Heelcups Dupont Zytel ST Baseplates are constructed of an extremely light blended nylon material.

Injected Aluminium buckles are strong & light, & don’t jam up in the cold. Free Ankle Strap Adjustment allows quick & easy adjustment of your ankle position while on the hill. Highback: Flite Pro Highbacks are out of place on a binding that costs less than £150. Based on the original Contact Pro highback from 2012 (designed by Gig Ruf), they are super light thanks to the (almost excessive) cut outs. Super comfy, stunningly light, & they look pretty good too. Discs/hardware: All New Binding Disks are compatible with 4x 2,  4x 4 & Burton’s Channel system.  Grade 8.8 Hardware is a nice touch.  The majority of snowboard binding hardware uses ‘standard’ steel.  In engineering terms, this would be described as ‘mild’ or low tensile steel, as it generally measures 4.6 on a Rockwell scale.  Union use ‘ High Tensile’ steel that measures 8.8 on a Rockwell scale. Bigger the number, the less chance of breaking/stripping/rounding your hardware.   I truly love the Flite Pro.  I appreciate that Union are offering premium quality products, at a price point that a retail assistant can afford!  I used these bindings extensively at last year’s ‘ Snowboard Spring Break’ & loved them so much, I will be buying a pair for myself for the upcoming season. Is it for me? If you are after a super plush, comfy binding, that can handle the odd steep & deep.&n ...

Magnesium Buckles do not freeze up in the cold, they are incredibly strong & light, & they look awesome too. Direct-Connect Tool Free Adjustment allows quick & easy adjustment of your ankle & toe strap position while on the hill.   Highback: Force Multi Zone Highbacks are a classic design benchmark.  Taper from bottom to top, to give more flex, comfort & compliance where you need less support.  The bottom is stiffer, resulting in great response.   Discs/hardware: All New Binding Disks are compatible with 4x 4 & Burton’s Channel system.  Grade 8.8 Hardware is a nice touch.  The majority of snowboard binding hardware uses ‘standard’ steel.  In engineering terms, this would be described as ‘mild’ or low tensile steel, as it generally measures 4.6 on a Rockwell scale.  Union use ‘ High Tensile’ steel that measures 8.8 on a Rockwell scale.

After designing outstanding bindings for 10 years, Union have pulled out all the stops with this binding, & even invented some new ones to pull out. Excellent features that we are used to from Union, like ultra strong blended nylon baseplates, beautiful injected magnesium buckles & highly adjustable positioning fades into the background behind the big showstopper that is the Forged Carbon highbacks.  The Ultra is an unbelievable piece of kit, pushing the upper boundaries of binding design.  Forged carbon is waaaay lighter than any other highback material, & is crazy strong. Coupled with the tiny contact patch of the binding on the board, & you have one hell of a binding with unrivalled response & board feel. Specification: • Duraflex Baseplates • Minidisk Baseplate profile • 3D  Heelcups • Vaporlite EVA Bushing • Sonic Fused Ankle Straps • Ultra Grip Toe Straps • Magnesium Buckles • Direct-Connect Tool Free Adjustment • Forged Carbon • Minidisk • Grade 8.8 hardware Base/ Heelcups Dura Flex Baseplates are the latest incarnation of Union’s trademark blended nylon baseplate material. Even stronger, yet still incredibly light. Minidisk binding discs are compatible with 4x 2 & Burton’s Channel system.  They also enable a binding design with a miniscule 5% contact area with your board.  Less contact = truer flex = better ride. 3D Extruded  Heelcups are extruded from a single block of aluminium. It’s not the cheapest method, but it’s the best process available on Aluminium heelcups, outstanding strength & longevity. Vaporlite EVA Bushing is an all new, multi-layer foam padding that sits between your board & your baseplates.  It absorbs vibration & shocks, resulting in a silky smooth, comfy ride from first tracks to last chair.   Straps: Sonic Fused Ankle Straps are asymmetric, 3D shaped ankle straps, constructed using multiple layers of composite materials fused together.  This enables intricate profiling, while drastically reducing the required stitching, resulting in a great fit, with exceptional durability Ultra Grip Toe Straps are compatible with over, or in front of the boot operation.  New for this season is an upgraded anti-slip material, to ensure that where you tighten them down, is where they will stay until you take them off. Magnesium Buckles do not freeze up in the cold, they are incredibly strong & light, & they look awesome too. Direct-Connect Tool Free Adjustment allows quick & easy adjustment of your ankle & toe strap position while on the hill. Highback: Forged Carbon Highbacks is new for this year to the snowboard industry.  Pioneered primarily by Lamborghini over the last 3 or 4 years, Forged carbon is a subtly different beast to the carbon we’re used to seeing in our winter sports tech. In very basic terms, forged carbon uses particles, rather than weaves of fibres. This allows significantly more complex shapes to be manufactured, & eliminates some of the weaknesses of traditional carbon fibre. Forged Carbon can be drilled without sacrificing the surrounding area, so less reinforcement is required, meaning less material = less weight, less cost & a prettier finished product.  This is not a complete game changer, but it’s a significant refinement in the potential design of carbon components.
