Details: 

• Stage 11 ASYM Duraflex ST Baseplate: By removing excess material in the toe and heel of the baseplate, and utilizing a brand new asymmetrical shape, we've been able to drastically increase the torsional flex of the binding. The Ultra's Stage 11 ASYM baseplate allows for 360 degree board flex and feel.
  
• S15 Ultra Duraflex ST Highback: 6 degrees of preloaded forward lean hugs your boot and allows for quick edge to edge response. While the all new molecular highback bushing provides increased freestyle flex and rebound while riding. This unique highback construction is exclusive to Union Binding Company.
• Molecular Bushing: Union's all-new Molecular bushing provides spring-loaded take offs and perfectly cushioned landings. 15% lighter than Union Fused Vaporite and guaranteed to minimize foot, ankle and knee fatigue. This is the future of freestyle binding design.
