					<description><![CDATA[Location: Loveland, Colorado Snow Conditions: Bluebird sunny skies and hardpacked groomed runs. Setup: I rode the Union Contacts on the Rome Postermania with my Bonfire Geo boots size 8. Time to set up the binding: I set it up so it was normal time since I&#8217;m familiar with the Contacts. Fit: I just had to make sure the straps were adjusted to my boots properly before taking them out on the snow.  When I ride union bindings, I rock the M/L size of bindings which fit the width of my size 8 boots and they aren&#8217;t too tall of a highback for my boots. First Impression: The softness and lightness of these bindings is always fun on the groomer days and playing around. Appearance: They remind me of those orange and white ice cream cups in the appearance, I miss the solid orange but it&#8217;s fun to have the white/orange color combination. Comfort: The straps were comfortable to my boots and didn&#8217;t offer any pressure points or weird spots when riding.  The baseplate is padded so absorbs some vibrations when riding and makes for  a super comfortable ride. Functionality: Contacts are just like any other binding except they offer less [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So when I was leaving town on Friday&#8230;I got the call from work that a package from Seattle arrived. Well that could really mean only one thing, my new Union Contact bindings. So I quickly stopped by, grabbed them and then since I was traveling to summit&#8230;had to wait 2 days before getting them out, adjusting them and mounting them to my snowboard. Open the box and beautiful sounds come out&#8230;ok well just the sound of me going &#8220;oohhh&#8221; and &#8220;awwww&#8221; Anytime I get anything now&#8230;I poke around and check it out. This box has many uses, rad! So I picked up the Union Contact bindings in M/L which actually fit my Vans Omni size 8&#8217;s very good in terms of width&#8230;no gaps. I had to adjust the straps to get them dialed to my boots and that didn&#8217;t take too long. Since I should be getting new Vans boots later this month&#8230;I&#8217;ll have to make sure they fit the new pair. The contacts will be my freestyle bindings switching between the evo and another board on the way. I&#8217;ll be getting a pair of Raiden women&#8217;s bindings that will be my freeride/powder bindings. This year is the first year [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Location: Timberline, Oregon Snow Conditions: Slushy, bumpy snow softer in spots with some hardpacked icy areas. Overcast skies to fog. Setup: I rode the Union Contact bindings on the Black Death Inc with my Vans Omni Focus boots. Time to set up the binding: Quicker than average Fit: I really had the time to get these dialed to my boots, making sure the fit was there and adjusted to me. Even with a men&#8217;s binding, I always worry the highback might be too much for my calf&#8217;s and boot fit&#8230;but the contacts were not an issue on sizing to a women&#8217;s boot in the M/L size. I also didn&#8217;t have any width problems, no gaps in the fit between the boot and bindings on the width factor. First Impression: It&#8217;s the brite light of bindings&#8230;so far so good. Yes it is extremely lightweight. Appearance: I got to try the bright orange contacts and at first I&#8217;m like dang&#8230;this is really bright. I actually grew to love the bright orange. To me the design of the contacts is sleek, there&#8217;s no special gimmicks or extra stuff to weigh you down&#8230;it&#8217;s a binding and the design is there with a nice color [&#8230;]]]></description>
