Overview

Designed and ridden by Travis Rice, the Falcor utilizes Carbon Forging and multi-density materials to create a lightweight and responsive all-mountain/freeride binding that's forgiving where you need flex, and responsive where you want direct connectivity. The hybrid highback features a forged carbon spine to carry forth lateral flex and vertical rigidity, while magnesium S1 ratchets and 8.8 hardware help ensure you're getting one of the most durable bindings on the market.

Features

Key Features

OTE Fused Vaporlite Bushings - An "industry first" that sets new standards for how a snowboard binding should function and perform. This new material utilizes an injection molding process very similar to the way plastic parts are created, making an element that is more waterproof, durable, and precise than any other EVA material on the market.

Minimal Base Contact = True Board Flex - Union baseplates are designed to provide supreme strength while minimally interfering with your board's natural flex. Minimal board to binding contact means sweeter response, better board control, and improved durability.

Highback

Forged Hybrid Highbacks - By combining Forged Carbon and glass injected nylon, Union's created a highback that allows flexibility for medial-lateral rotation while preserving a direct connection for edge to edge control. Power where you need it and the freedom to ride the way you want.

Forged Hybrid Beam - The highback perimeters allow the flex needed to dial in your style, while the centralizing forged carbon beam preserves lossless power into the board.

Classic FLAD (Forward Lean Adjuster) - Zero out your highback lean for mellow cruising or park laps, or crank it up a notch for those high speed assaults when you need extra leverage and board control. Easy adjustment allows you to customize your highback lean on the fly.

Straps

Exoframe 5.0 Ankle Straps - The Exoframe 5.0 utilizes tri-axial progressive flex for the perfect boot to binding fit and instant power and response when you’re ready to lay down a hard charging, high speed carve. Easily adjust your ankle strap to any boot with the quick snap of the pin adjustment, no tools needed. Just like all Union ankle straps, the Exofame series comes with the safety and security of DuPont™ Hytrel®, so you never miss a day of riding.

Tool-Free Ankle/Toe Strap Adjustments - No screwdrivers needed here. Simply flip the adjusters by hand to fine-tune your fit.

TS 4.0+ Toe Straps - Simple, lightweight, durable - The all-new TS 4.0+ toe strap keeps you locked in for the ride down without letting you know it’s there. A new shorter buckle base helps to reduce weight and pressure points. Easily adjust to any boot with the quick snap of the pin adjustment, no tools needed.

Magnesium S1 Ratchets - When you ride 100+ days a season your ratchets take a beating. Freezing temps, water damage and constant strapping and unstrapping all play a role in the longevity of a binding ratchet. Lucky for you, the all-new Magnesium 4.0 ratchets are Union’s answer to the elements. A fully integrated spring protected from the harsh outside provide you with Union’s best ratchet to date. Longer life span and better spring return guaranteed.

Baseplate

Size-Proportionate Fiberglass Index - Bigger riders require stiffer bindings. Union proportionally increases the fiberglass content in each size of their bindings so that any rider who straps in will have perfect support.

Stage VI Duraflex CB Baseplate - Blended with carbon fiber, the Duraflex CB is lighter and considerably more stiff than typical fiberglass injected nylon resulting in a strength to weight ratio never before achieved in a snowboard binding. Developed, used, and abused by Travis Rice.

Extruded 3D Aluminum Heelcups - A new process removes as much excess material as possible in the heelcup to reduce weight while maintaining tried and true strength. Union heelcups undergo an anodizing process reinforcing the already bombproof apparatus with another 30-percent strength. It's serious strength in a streamline package.

Canted Gas Pedals - Ideal for riders who want a wide stance and extra leverage for ollie power. Canting also allows the ankle and knee joints to be aligned, alleviating pain.

Universal 4x2 Channel Compatible Minidisk - Designed to create a minimal contact footprint for even board flex.

Compatible with any traditional 4-hole or 3-hole snowboard mounting inserts, along with Burton snowboards featuring The Channel. You can mount Union Bindings on any board you choose.

Not compatible with 4x4 or with boards featuring powder pack setback insets.

Grade 8.8 Hardware - The strongest steel available on the market - the use of Grade 8.8 represents Union's commitment of delivering the strongest and most reliable bindings on the market today. Top to bottom.

The most commonly used hardware is made from "mild steel" that has a property class of only 4.6. Considering how much stress a binding is put under, Union uses only the strongest steel (featuring a property class of 8.8) on all hardware.

Warranty

Lifetime Warranty on Baseplate and Heel Cup - Covered under manufacturer lifetime guarantee against breakage of the baseplate or heelcup along with defects in materials or workmanship. This lifetime warranty DOES NOT cover broken bindings due to abuse or neglect, damage caused by any modification done outside the manufacturer's facility, or lost parts due to lack of hardware maintenance.

Highbacks, straps, ratchets and other components are covered under Union's 1 Year Warranty.

About Union

100% Ownership, 100% Focus - Union is 100% devoted to making the best bindings on the planet. From discovering new materials to CNC machining a new baseplate, everything is done in-house with zero outsourcing. Every single piece of a Union binding is completely exclusive to Union.

Union Falcor Snowboard Bindings - satellite
Threw these on a 161 retro ripper by lib tech and boy they are responsive. Very comfortable, nice and stiff and easy to get in and out of. I like how easy they have made it to adjust the length of the straps as well. The satellite design if pretty sweet as well. Highly recommend!

Union Falcor Snowboard Bindings - reflective silver
I love the feel of these Falcor bindings for my free ride board. They’re ultra responsive and provide wonderful transitions from edge to edge. The faster you go, the more responsive the bindings tend to be. I would not recommend these for a beginner but if you like big lines and want a binding that gives you great control and feel, look no further

Union Falcor Snowboard Bindings - arctic white
All I ca say is the only reason for the price of the binding is the cool high back design and Travis Rice having his name attached. If that wasn't there it is no better than any $250 binding out there. It has a nice quality feel and construction but it doesn't go anywhere near what I was expecting.

Best binding on the market

Union Falcor Snowboard Bindings - white
A few seasons ago I put purchased the Falcor for another of my snowboards. I love the binding so much that I purchased another pair for a new snowboard this season. What love about it: 1) Soft mounting plate minimizes binding rash and provides slight canting for a more comfortable ride: 2) straps are super easy to adjust and require zero hardware to do so (I was originally concerned of the durability/reliability of the no-hardware adjustability but have had zero problems after multiple seasons with it); 3) no corners were cut relative to the material choices that make up this binding. Baseplate, highback, straps are all super high quality, durable and lightweight.

Union Falcor Snowboard Bindings - black
I’ve used these ona few long weekend trips now and I love them. Super light and very comfortable and easy to use and adjust via the quick adjusts. Stiff enough to handle the hard charging but flexible enough to be playful. No wonder Travis Rice uses these.
