K2 vs Ride vs Union - Page 2 - Snowboarding Forum

If I were to get the Union Atlas's should I go with a large/x-large binding? I have size 10 boots.

Nevermind. I guess it would be the large/x-large since it says 9.5-14.

What boots are you using? Some will have a smaller footprint and you could fit a m/l which my be better overall.

If it were me, I would go with the M/L Atlas. I ride Nike boots and have owned the ZF-1, Kaiju, and DK all in a 9.5. All of which fit (with room to spare) in the M/L Atlas base.

M/L for sure. Basetray is wide.

Don't be too leary of the Union toe strap. They've refined the shape for this season (similar to last season's, but with better hold), and Unions are BOMBER. No tooless adjustment doo-dads to break. No auto tech that saves you a few seconds when strapping in, but is just one more thing waiting to break. True, they don't have canting, but I recommend trying cnted bindings before you buy. They can definitely be a love it/hate it thing.

Why aren't you looking at Burtons? Malavitas, Cartels, or Missions might all work well for you.

Get a M/L binding.

I have a 10.5 kaiju and I can fit into M/L or L/XL Contact or Force basetrays, but the Atlas tray is longer than either of those.
