    Probably my favourite binding, have had three over the years. Right level of rigidity/feel for aggressive riding, not so much that it kills surfy pow or goofing around. Not sure how I feel about the dial though, looks like something ready to get iced and jammed. The flippy thing with a screw was simple and repairable, no need to reinvent the wheel.

    I would like to get your advice.
    I rode Ride LX then EX for years. I need a responsive binding. Any suggestions?

    Between this and the Rome Cleaver, I thought the Cleaver is easier to adjust and the Rome aux tech was more snug out of the box on my Invado Pros.

    @Avran How did your K2s fit with these (and I guess Union bindings in general)? Have a set of Medium and looking at picking up some K2 Maysis in a US10. My Atlas are running in an 'inverted mullet' style, with the minimal toe strap from the Falcor, along with Strata ankle straps/highbacks if this is relevant. Thanks.

    Hi David- I really appreciate your knowledge and reviews man!
    I ride a 2022 Jamie Lynn 160w
    I have the Union Force bindings on it and I really like the Force...but I find myslef looking for a bit more edge to edge drive and more ability to manipulate the board
    I'm considering the Atlas Pro, because it is supposed to be a stiffer binding and I'm hoping gain some additional feel
    What are your thoughts on the Atlas Pro?
    Big difference between them and the Force's?
    I also just picked up a GNU Banked Country 163w, curious your thoughts of what bindings you'd recommend for both these all mountian shredding boards!?

    Yo man not sure if I missed it or not but what board/binding is your go to for ‘24? I’m looking for something that’s camrocker thats playful enough that’s fairly catch free but can still charge when I want for a do everything type deck. Also unfortunately I’m an east coast rider. Any recommendations?

    Hey I’m looking to get my first snowboard and I don’t plan on getting another for a few years so I need it to last me, I can already do some backflips, 360s and go down double blacks. I enjoy hitting the park but also want something I can go down double blacks with ease, I was wanting a twin probably so I can do everything what kinda bored would you recommend, I was looking at the mega merc, gnu rc, or spring break but the sn is out of stock rn.

    • @extropy
      @extropy 8 місяців тому

      Get a mega merc and call it done. You want it to last a few years so the extra build quality and price matters more and less. It is a stiffer board than some other all mountain freestyle boards but it will make you a better rider if you ride the park with it imho. Carves with the best of them and it is super light. The set back does help a bit and doesn't affect switch riding almost at all.
      If you didn't want to charge double blacks, the Spring Break Resort Twin is my park board choice ( it can still charge, just not as well ).
      Don't think, just CONSUME.

      Truce is a little softer than I'd personally want on that board. Good binding but unless you're on a budget or want something that soft, no reason to go for it.

      The problem with this is, I’ve had it come out on its own and then get stuck at full lean. I just set it and put some duct tape over the adjuster. Really don’t like the design though.
