Union does not make a cost effective all mountain binding. To get anything actually stiff enough you have to get either Chargers or MC's.
Get SF45's. Or for other optoins, Flow NX2-AT's, Burton Cartel, K2 Company, or Salomon Hologram.

Yup, adding another thought to the mix here. Burtons. The ratchets are great, and the toe straps are more of a cup.
*insert bad asian voice* Me rikey! ![]() I wanted unions before but checked them all out and ended up with some super stiff Burton C60's... |

regardless of if he's sponsored by them (yet) Cro is not a shill.
if the choice is between flux and union its flux all day every day. union bindings are a complete joke - at this point their toestraps (NOT a capstrap) is about 4-5 years behind the rest of the industry. Union = FAILURE AT LIFE

i will say that i haven't ridden those flux's the entire time these past couple years. they are more of my back up for when whatever newer bindings i had broke and had nothing else to ride. originally i only bought them cause some near by shop was closing down and i got them and a pair of celsius boots for about $50. since then though i always seem to fall back on them at least a month or so of solid riding every season. the model i have are called the super emblems from before they came out with all this letters and numbers nonsense. |

Thanks for the full disclosure... and I def never thought nor was I insinuating that you're a shill. I'm peeping some 2013 RK 30s for a really good price and am seriously thinking of pulling the trigger.

I'm rocking some 2012 rk30s on my park setup. They're comfy and offer great flex. For a urathane hi back they have good response. That beig said I don't think anyone would tell you to get them with out knowing what kind of riding you're doing. The tt30s are another option with good flex, but stiffer than the rk30s.
