					<description><![CDATA[Location: Mission Ridge, WA Snow Conditions: Softpacked groomers to fresh snow on the mountain. Setup: I rode the Union Force Bindings on the Nitro Eero Ettala with my Vans Ferra Boots size 8. Time to set up the binding: Average time to set up on the board. Fit: I rocked the Forces in the M/L size which is what I&#8217;ve used in the past. They fit my size 8 women&#8217;s boots with some adjustments to the straps and heelcup. First Impression: I can always count on the Forces to be my go-to binding on the mountain. Gets the job done without the bells and whistles. Appearance: I tried the Forces in the bright pink colorway. I prefer the blue but the pink is really really bright, similar to the women&#8217;s Trilogy bindings this year but for the men to have the bright pink option. Comfort: The Forces continue to offer comfort on the mountain, good padding in the highback to baseplate. The straps are form fitting to the boot. Functionality: The Union Forces are known for workhouse dependability. They feature stage II base dupont zytel ST, multizone dupont ST highbacks with injected EVA bushings. Extruded anodized aluminum heelcups, quick adjust [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Location: Mission Ridge, WA Snow Conditions: Softpacked groomers to fresh snow on the mountain. Setup: I rode the Union Trilogy Bindings on the GNU B-Pro and Jones Mothership with my Vans Ferra Boots size 8. Time to set up the binding: The Union Trilogies were easy to set up and adjusted with the straps to be ready to go. Fit: I rocked the Trilogies in the medium sizing which were a good fit to my size 8 Vans boots. Only an adjustment to the straps was needed to make sure they were centered. First Impression: I can always count on this binding to ride with dominating women&#8217;s freeride boards and still hold its own. Appearance: I tried the Trilogies in the Magenta colorway which is bright. On the Jones mothership, the bindings really stood out and on the B-Pro, they were completely suited to the just as bright graphics. I personally loved the bright magenta even though I thought I wouldn&#8217;t. Comfort: The Trilogies have bulked up since I last rode them making them even more comfortable in the ankle strap department. Good padding in the baseplate and highback to help absorb some fun fast riding. Functionality: The Union Trilogy [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Location: Winter Park, CO Snow Conditions: Hardpacked to softpacked groomers. Setup: I rode the Union Milans on the Bataleon Whatever with my Vans Ferra Boots size 8. Time to set up the binding: No time at all, I grabbed the bindings from Union and brought them over to Bataleon to get them mounted. They were ready to go with the straps already aligned up. Fit: I rode these bindings in the M/L size which are a good fit to my size 8 Vans boots. I was able to get the straps adjusted and centered so they didn&#8217;t shift while riding. First Impression: The upgrades to the Milan just make the binding that much better. Appearance: The Milans I tried out were bright but so are the rest of the Milan color options. Super neon green with purple flare on the binding made them completely overshadow any board underneath them (no offense Bataleon). Comfort: The Milans are all about comfort for the female rider and continue to add to it with the 2013 Milan focused on padding. From the baseplate to the highback to the straps, the bindings absorb the terrain and spit it out like it&#8217;s nothing. Functionality: The Union [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In eight years, Union Binding Company has become a major player in snowboard bindings for design, functionality and keeping it fun. As SIA was getting started, they added another big player to their team lineup&#8230;Travis Rice now joins the ranks of Union Binding riders. For 2013, Union keeps it fresh and continues with their new open toe strap design throughout the line. They&#8217;ve added a new carbon binding, the Charger for those wanting response. The 2013 Union Catalog says, “The perfect binding is more than a mechanism.  It’s more than a tool.  It’s more than the sum of a baseplate, highbacks, straps and hardware.  The perfect binding is a catalyst to creating the ultimate connection between rider and board – and that connection spells freedom.”  Well done Union. Union MC-Metafuse Metafuse Technology. Features machined coring stage III Atlas base, carbon-injected dupont zytel ST, all-new asym/symmetrical Full Carbon highbacks, precision adjustment foward lean, injected EVA bushings, metafuse heelcups, all-new 3D direct connect strap system, multi-layer tapered strap core , magnesium buckles and aluminum cage, universal disks, all new CNC anodized  aluminum hardware, all-new open toe straps, dual density toe ramp padding, full carbon toe ramps, lifetime warranty base. Color: Black Union [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Location: Winter Park, CO Snow Conditions: Hardpacked to softpacked groomers. Setup: I rode the Union Charger on the Jones Flagship Carbon with my Vans Ferra Boots size 8. Time to set up the binding: This was the second setup of the day and Parker took care of it, he&#8217;s a magician when it comes to demos and turning the screws. Fit: I rode these bindings in the M/L size which fit the width of my boots and were adjusted to fit the length of my boots with the heelcup coming in a notch. The straps did fine with my Vans Ferra boots. First Impression: These bindings are the stiffest in the Union line and no joke. Be ready for response and charging the mountain. Appearance: The Chargers are sleek when you look at them. The full carbon highback is breathtaking and arguably makes you bow down to how it handles. I like the mix of orange with the binding on the ratchets and baseplate and heelcup. Comfort: The padding in the baseplate and toe ramp help cushion the ride. It&#8217;s still a lightweight binding and from what I noticed with the Jones Flagship Carbon board, there&#8217;s not as much dampening to totally pillowtop [&#8230;]]]></description>
