Maurice Hall tested this product
The Union Explorer splitboard bindings are great for exploring the backcountry. They're light and easy to use, perfect for long trips and tough climbs. You can quickly adjust them for different types of terrain, which is handy on steep hills. They're strong, too, so they won't break easily when you're out in rough terrain. But they might not be the... Read more

Awesome starter binding

Posted on Feb 14, 2024
Wish it had more height settings for climbing steeper slopes but performs very well for the price point.

Great entry level split bindings!

Originally posted at eu.unionbindingcompany.com on Aug 8, 2023
Super affordable for me since I am pretty new to splitboarding. I spent a good chunk of my budget on avy gear so I decided to give these a try for the price. They ride really well! I had a pair of Contact Pro on my solid board and I would say they are pretty similar to those. Some of my friends were bashing the pin set up but I do not mind it at all. I’ve had no issues with it and to be honest I have used the pin itself to break loose ice build up on my split board clips. I will probably upgrade to the Charger in a few seasons.

Tremendous Help
5 /5
Ethan was responsive and very helpful in getting me started with some gear. Having some very limited knowledge in skiing, Ethan was able to provide some great suggestions on narrowing down equipment given my budget and preferred style. He helped me save a ton of time, rather than doing hours of research trying to guess on what would suit me best. With his knowledge I have confidence that I was able to make a smart purchase that I will not regret.

5 /5
I was in the process of picking out some ski equipment and I got matched with Gary. He was amazing answered every question I had and gave me his opinion on if I was looking into something that was not going to be right for me. He was beyond knowledgeable and it felt like I could come to him with anything. Even when I took a few days to do some more research and make sure I wanted to buy the things that were in my cart he would check in often to make sure I had now other questions. Absolutely top tier easily the best customer service I have ever had when making a big purchase like this.

Hands down the BEST experience i have ever had buying outdoor gear! Edward was extremely knowledgable, listened to what i needed and provided great suggestions. Had some good laughs and witty banter and it was like going shopping with a best friend who was an expert to point me to all the best gear and deals. Honestly i've never met a better salesperson who was so focused on helping me get out and enjoy the slopes. 1000 out of 10.

1 /5
I needed the product quickly and was told it was shipping from Colorado, where I live. However, it turned out to be coming from Obetz, Ohio. John was more focused on making a sale than understanding my needs—he didn’t ask for any of my specifications yet claimed this was the perfect board for me. He then followed up to ensure I placed the order. This experience left me disappointed, and I won’t be returning to Curated or recommending it to others. The way your representatives conduct business reflects on your company.
