Redesigned to the last detail, the Union Falcor sets a high bar in terms of performance, design and sustainability. What you're looking at is the future, and it's no surprise that Travis Rice inspired this binding with his aggressive riding style. If you're looking for a high-end model made for freeride/freestyle riding, you've just found it.
The big news is the development of the new Duraflex Blue nylon, which is made from renewable and recycled materials. This binding sets new standards for sustainability in snowboarding. The material makes up the new two-piece baseplate, which combines soft damping and fast response, as well as the new highback, which is 10% lighter than its previous generation and combines nylon with Italian carbon. In short, the design of this binding makes it clear - you'll enjoy flexibility and damping for freedom in tricks, along with responsiveness and aggressiveness for fast riding. So don't wait and come for the best ride you've ever experienced!
Specifications
- Flex: 7/10
- Use: Freestyle 8/10, All-mountain 9/10, Performance 10/10
- Duraflex Blue Nylon material: together with Envalior, they have created a new sustainable nylon that is made from 90% renewable resources, bio-waste and recycled glass and plastic. The material has been carefully tested for durability and strength, even when exposed to high and low temperatures. The baseplate and highback are made from it.
- New Baseplate: S12 Duraflex Blue – a new baseplate consisting of two parts that are made of materials of different stiffness, thanks to which they form a perfectly tuned binding character.
- Asymmetric Halo Baseplate Frame: flexible freestyle frame
- Direct Connect MD Baseplate Core: stiff and responsive core for immediate edge response and perfect board connection
- Asymmetric Molecular Bushings: lighter, more durable and more efficient than classic EVA. It forms a layer between the baseplate and the board that absorbs shocks and supports freestyle flexibility thanks to the new asymmetric shape. A slight incline promotes a more natural knee position.
- Heelcup: Extruded 3D Aluminum – designed for optimal heel hold, minimal drag and efficient response.
- Highback: S20 Asym Forged Hybrid 3.0 - A stiff and responsive Italian forged carbon spine allows for instant edge-to-edge control, while the eco-friendly Duraflex Blue nylon frame allows for freestyle flexibility and comfort. The new asymmetric shape copies the natural angle of the foot and thus ensures a more anatomical fit. Flexibility made for Travis Rice's aggressive riding.
- Classic FLAD - adjust the tilt of the highback using a #3 screwdriver
- Hardware made of the highest quality grade 8.8 steel
- EVA insole under the toe, which prevents the accumulation of snow and the formation of ice under the boot.
