The toe strap cap of this binding is made of Ultra-Grip material, to ensure that you will stay in firmly place when you board. This set of bindings is a step up from the lower cost Union Contact set of bindings in that its EVA bushings are triple-zone injected (which offers close to complete dampening and lots of board flex) rather than just dual-zone, it has a 3D multi-layer strap core (which evenly distributes strap pressure), Contact Pro highbacks (which are especially light, and pro snowboarder approved), and CNC machined heelcups (which have a reduced weight design that maintains strength). The Union Contact Pro set of snowboard bindings come in a black/yellow color.
