Product Info
For 11 years, the Union Force Snowboard Bindings have stayed on top due to their strength, dependability, and versatility. A medium flex for ample support and turning response without sacrificing park riding capabilities, combined with a vibration-killing EVA footbed and tool-free construction means you won't waste time going to the lodge to make adjustments or call it quits early because your legs are tired. Union's Force Bindings give you the performance you need for hard, aggressive riding and the comfort you want for chill days just cruising at a price your piggy bank can support.
Product Details
Baseplate
Stage 4 Duraflex ST – A stiff base combined with dual density injected bushing provides a high-performance response, comfortable dampening and a true board flex.
Multi-Density Thermoformed EVA – Lightweight foam cushioning provides premium shock-absorption while maintaining board feel and natural flex.
Highback
Force Highback – Flex and tweakability where you want it, support and durability where you need it. These highbacks give you next level heelside response and board control.
Straps
SonicFused Ankle Strap – Features a multi-layer composite strap core that is fused together to form a single, articulated strap. This minimization of stitching increases the straps durability and reduces weight. Additionally, it evenly distributes pressure across your boot improving comfort and lateral mobility.
Buckles
Magnesium Buckles – This high-tech process produces a material four-times the strength of aluminum with only half the weight. Plus, magnesium is easily recycled and remains the eighth most abundant material on the planet.
Additional Features
3D Heelcup – Made of extremely durable extruded aluminum, designed to minimize toe drag while optimizing heel hold.
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 is under, Union uses only the strongest steel on ALL hardware.
Tool-Free Adjustments – No screwdrivers needed - Flip the levers for a quick and easy on-hill adjustment.

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:
Medium
More
Flex Rating
Medium 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.
