23/24 season reviewDifferent season, same model
https://snowboardingprofiles.com/union-atlas-pro-bindings-review

The strongest binding for riding fast, carving, and for when you need support and control on bumpy terrain. It isn't the very stiffest and retains a little forgiveness, but it's clearly mid-stiff or above. The highback twist is asymmetric, far stiffer on the inside than the outside. Pairs with boards 6–9/10 flex.

Suits advanced to expert riders

Good

  • Excellent power and control at speed and in carves
  • Good support on bumpy terrain
  • Not the very stiffest, so a little forgiveness remains
  • The highback's differing inside and outside stiffness responds differently by direction

Not so good

  • Not a fit for beginners or relaxed cruisers
  • You have to push hard to get its performance out
  • Overkill on soft boards (5/10 and below)

Stiffer and more responsive than the Atlas, at the cost of less vibration damping and impact absorption. The highback is clearly stiffer than the Atlas's — the Atlas gained a channel in its highback that made it easier to twist with more lean-back, and this one doesn't have that. The reviewer says they prefer the Force and Atlas's extra give because of calf bite, but adds that it isn't bad by high-end binding standards.

Good

  • Stiffer and more responsive than the Atlas
  • Build quality befitting a high-end binding
  • Generous highback padding

Not so good

  • Less vibration damping and impact absorption than the Atlas
  • Less highback give, so there's more calf bite than the Atlas or Force
