Union Ultra
Introducing the completely new Union Ultra bindings. Incredibly responsive and highly cushioned, the Ultra uses the latest manufacturing technologies from Union to redefine how freestyle bindings should perform. Extremely lightweight, built on a layering system where each layer serves a specific purpose, much like a running shoe. The new Stage 11 ASYM Duraflex ST base has been designed to enhance torsional flex. The base is also significantly lightweight, offering superior control and comfort.
The key differences between the Strata and Ultra bindings are:
Lower weight
Increased cushioning
Higher level of responsiveness
Improved buckles
Key Features:
Exclusive Union cushioning technology
Enhanced ankle strap construction
