UNION Falcor (haze) snowboard bindings

Union Falcor Haze 2026 Snowboard Bindings

The next generation of Falcor bindings raises the bar in snowboard binding design and introduces the future of sustainable materials at Union. This high-performance freeride and freestyle binding is crafted for Travis Rice's aggressive riding style, ready to tackle the most challenging lines and steepest slopes.

Falcor combines lightness, durability, and exceptional responsiveness. Equipped with the unique Forged Hybrid highback and Stage 6 Duraflex CB baseplate, it provides precise control at high speeds and in demanding terrain. The bindings feature significant toe-to-heel flex for quick turn initiation while maintaining a freestyle-friendly character thanks to reduced lateral flex and a mini disk that allows the board to work naturally under the bindings.

Whether you're dropping Alaska's wild spines or charging resort runs at full throttle, the Falcor delivers the power, precision, and performance Travis trusts every day.

Sustainable Material – Duraflex Blue.

The eco trend and the push for sustainable production also reach Union. The Falcor bindings utilize a new material: Duraflex Blue. 90% of this material comes from sustainable sources—bio-waste, renewable energy, and recycled material. It retains all the necessary properties for snowboard bindings, functioning in cold temperatures while reducing CO2 emissions by over 60% compared to traditional production.

TECHNICAL DETAILS:

• FLEX: Medium – 7/10
• BASEPLATE: S12 Duraflex Blue – Standard snowboard baseplates are made from a single layer with uniform material and stiffness. The new Union two-layer baseplate design allows for separate Core and Frame layers, each with unique material and stiffness to achieve the desired binding feel.

• CORE: Direct Connect MD Core – Completely new binding core. The Direct Connect Mini Disk is stiff and responsive, providing the fastest energy transfer from rider to board Union has ever achieved. Made from eco-friendly Duraflex Blue.
• BASE FRAME: Asymmetrical Halo Base Frame – Softer and more flexible than traditional bases, offering a unique ride feel and increased lateral flexibility, adding a freestyle-friendly character. The frame also integrates the core, base cushion, heel, and ankle/toe straps. Made from eco-friendly Duraflex Blue.

• CUSHIONING: Asym Molecular Bushing – More durable and shock-absorbing than traditional thermoformed EVA foams, acting as a suspension system between the baseplate and the board top sheet to reduce vibrations from hard snow. The asymmetrical design improves freestyle flex and natural inward guidance while riding.

• HIGHBACK: Asym Forged Hybrid Highback – Eco-friendly Duraflex Blue combined with Italian Forged Carbon fiber creates a flex profile optimized for Travis Rice’s aggressive style. Stiff carbon fiber spine offers immediate edge control, while the nylon frame adds freestyle flex and comfort. The updated asymmetrical shape follows the natural leg angle, providing a more anatomical fit. 10% lighter than the previous generation Falcor highbacks.

• UPPER STRAPS: Hybrid 1.0 Ankle Strap – Combines immediate responsiveness with all-day comfort. The Hybrid 1.0 strap pairs a responsive Exoframe outer structure with a comfortable, flexible inner padding – Forma. The new V-shaped cut allows for tight fastening without pressure points. Lightweight, durable, and highly comfortable, it has quickly become a favorite among new Union riders.
