The Union Explorer split boarding bindings are designed for the adventurous snowboarder that wants to go where no one else has ridden before. You see a part of the mountain you want to ride and you go there. The Union Explorer makes it possible whilst maintaining the same feel as your traditional bindings.
The Explorer has been given a new forward lean adjuster flad and the baseplate has been upgraded with a non stick EVA gas pedal for 2022. This prevents snow and ice build-up under your boots so you can set off without having to scrape off the baseplate first.
The Split FLAD 2.0 allows you to switch from touring mode to ride mode in the blink of an eye. The new Explorer Split Forward Lean Adjuster (FLAD for short) has been upgraded for improved durability and easier transition with gloves so you can keep your hands warm and comfortable and waste less energy.
The Explorer splitboard binding focuses on a natural board feel with less moving parts and a durable design built to handle the longest tours and steepest lines. The whole mountain is now your playground. You just have to hike there and earn your turns.
