Union Binding Co. Falcor

A 7/10 flex rating puts these bindings on the stiffer side of the spectrum, meaning they are built for power and immediate energy transfer. You will feel a direct connection to your board, which is ideal for high-speed carving and navigating steep, technical terrain where precision matters most.

The Forged Hybrid highback combines the stiffness needed for aggressive riding with a shape that allows for a bit more lateral mobility than a traditional, fully rigid highback. This gives you the support you need for big mountain lines while still allowing for the subtle adjustments required to navigate tight chutes or uneven snow.

Yes, the Stage 6 Duraflex CB baseplate is designed specifically for responsiveness and durability in demanding conditions. Its construction is stiff enough to hold an edge reliably on ice and hard-pack, ensuring your board reacts instantly to your input.

The Falcor is generally too stiff and responsive for beginners or those still developing their fundamental skills. It is engineered for advanced riders who need a binding that can handle high-speed descents and aggressive big mountain maneuvers without flexing or failing.

While park bindings prioritize flexibility for tweaks and presses, the Falcor prioritizes stability and power transfer. It lacks the 'surfier' feel of softer bindings, focusing instead on locking you in for high-speed stability and control in challenging, off-piste environments.
