The Story
From first turns to park laps, the Union Cadet bindings give groms a serious platform to grow on. The Stage 8 Duraflex baseplate is Union’s lightest yet, backed by Thermoformed EVA bushings that mute harsh vibration without killing board feel, and it bolts up cleanly to all standard mounting patterns.
Up top, the Cadet Duraflex highback keeps response friendly, pairing with Exoframe 2.0 ankle straps and TS 2.1 Hexgrip toe straps for a secure, skatey feel. Aluminum S2 ratchets, Grade 8.8 steel hardware, a 4/10 overall flex, tool-less FLAD and a Snap Fit disk cover make this a low-maintenance, high-fun binding for young riders.

- Buckles / Ratcheting: Aluminum S2 ratchets with steel components for reliable tightening
