Deep Dive
Why We Love the Union Cadet Pro Binding
The Union Cadet Pro Binding represents the next level of performance for young riders stepping up from the Cadet model. It encompasses all the exceptional features of its predecessor, but with added advanced elements to conquer any terrain on the mountain.
Our top favorite features include the upgraded Exoframe 2.0 ankle strap and the snug Ultragrip toe strap. These enhancements provide enhanced response and superior comfort, enabling our young riders to reach their peak performance. The tool-free forward lean in the highback is a remarkable feature for junior riders, as it allows them to easily adjust their stance for optimal riding.
The Stage 5 baseplate and Team S highback offer remarkable response, flexibility, durability, and value. The canted and thermoformed EVA bushings further enhance performance by effectively dampening vibrations and shocks from landings. This ensures that even after conquering the park, our young riders won't experience leg fatigue.
