09 Union Binding Preview

Yes, by now we all know Mr. Danny Kass is making the jump to Union bindings. I think that rumor has been floating around for some time but it is official. Sneak a look at some of the binders DK may be on in '09.

Update 3/7/08
From the guys at Union via our messages...

"Changes in the Forces come in the form of the toe and ankle straps. Ankles are a bit sleeker in profile, but have more padding. The toe strap is completely redesigned. It works as a toe cap 1000X better. We removed the material on the bottom part of the strap, to eliminate wear issues. They've also been lightened up by about 9% over last years clamps. And the red color way is sick."

  3. its to make the toestraps work better, some of them have a mesh in the middle instead of leather and the plastic oval sticks out the bottom of the toe strap so they can fit over ya toe better

    works real good...

  6. No there won't be an Airblaster colab. There will be a very limited late release Danny Kass, Iuter Clan and KFC bindings. Danny's will come in at $239, while the KFC and Iuter come in for a bit less. These should hit shelfs in October.
