Union Atlas Binding 2027 - Kevin Backstrom

The Union Atlas Kevin Backstrom is the signature binding of Swedish snowboarder Kevin Backstrom, one of the most progressive and versatile riders in modern snowboarding. Built on Union's legendary Atlas platform, this binding delivers powerful response, dependable durability, and all-mountain versatility for riders who approach the entire mountain as a playground.

Kevin Backstrom is known for blending creative freestyle riding with aggressive freeride lines, and his signature Atlas reflects that balanced approach. Designed to handle everything from technical terrain and powder to side hits, jumps, and groomers, the Atlas provides the confidence and control needed for all-day exploration.

The Atlas platform features a responsive Stage chassis construction paired with a supportive highback that creates quick edge-to-edge response without feeling overly restrictive. This balance allows riders to charge hard while maintaining enough freedom for creative riding and natural board feel.

Premium Exoframe-style ankle straps and secure toe straps provide excellent boot hold and comfort, while advanced molecular cushioning helps absorb vibration and impact. Whether riding rough resort conditions, carving hardpack, or landing bigger features, the Atlas remains smooth, stable, and predictable.

Built with a medium-stiff flex, the Atlas Kevin Backstrom offers a versatile ride feel that works across a wide range of snow conditions and terrain types.
