I've ridden these bindings in the past but have never tested them back to back to really try to feel the differences. To test them out we had some slushy conditions, which helped get more pressure in the bindings, and we were lapping the Pali chair at Arapahoe Basin in Colorado. This chair accesses some fun groomed and ungroomed terrain, trees, and 2 terrain parks. The Union Contact is the softest and most tweakable binding of the three, and I found the Atlas to be the most responsive. As you go up from softer to stiffer bindings you are basically trading tweakability for support and responsiveness. Let me know what you think about these bindings down in the comments, thanks for watching.
