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.

Kat was so helpful!
5 /5
Kat was so patient with all my questions and truly helped me figure out what gear would work best for me! She recommended me a good couple of boards and went into detail on each one and what the different features were and how they’d benefit me. As someone who buys for looks and pretty colors, I’m glad I had help to be confident in my purchase for my ride style and experience level!

I was unsure what ski gear to buy, but Noah settled all my worries. He was extremely knowledgeable and sent me a video explaining everything which gave the whole experience a more personal feel. I am very happy I matched with Noah because he was able to find the best skis for me and answered all my other questions!!

5 /5
As someone buying skis for the first time, but having skied for a few years Leo was incredibly helpful! He took into account what I prioritized but also explained why a suggestion might be out of my initial request. For example, he got ahead of my question on why bindings are expensive and why it is important to not only focus on the skis but the bindings as well.

Frankie really dialed in the board for me
5 /5
He has extensive knowledge, and was really able to find the perfect setup for me and my riding style as well as my bank account. Also was honest and kept me from making a purchase that I might regret. We talked for at least an hour and the whole time he was very helpful. All in all he really knows his stuff when it comes to getting you into the perfect set up. I highly recommend him. Thanks again Frankie.

Tyler was awesome!
5 /5
I’ve been using a board from 2005 for the last 4 or so years now. Finally decided it was time to upgrade but had no idea of what to upgrade to. He asked what I was looking for, and ended up narrowing it down to exactly what I need/want, to further my skills. He’s very knowledgeable and approachable, and overall very friendly. Was nice talking to Tyler and I’m super stoked to get up on the mountain.
