Pretty sure the binding works better than it did before it broke.

I like it, 300 style points for not using matching zipties

Those are Contacts right? I splurged for the Atlases and have been really happy with them.

Yeah they’re contacts, got a great deal on them otherwise I probably would have gone for something more all-mountain like the Atlas. But I actually really like them, Union makes some damn good hardware.... Other than the bolt that’s supposed to be where those zipties are, which just decided to come undone and abandon ship mid run.

I had the contacts before the Atlas. They were the Ultrafear collab between Capita/Union. Mine used to lose the toe strap adjustment bolt/knob all the time.

Haha well good to know it’s not just me. Idk why they don’t just use a little locktite...

Yeah it makes no sense to me either. That’s what I did to cure it but it still would come off from time to time. Union can send you a replacement though which I had them do when I ultimately had it fly off halfway down a trail.

Awesome, I need to give them a call. But hey the ‘ol drift stitch got me through the day pretty good.
