Union Cadet One Snowboard Binding - 2026 - Kids' White, XS

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""The Cadet One is the perfect first binding—it’s super light, simple, and sized right for little boots. The single strap makes it easy for kids to get in and out on their own, and the soft flex helps them build confidence without fighting their gear. It’s a game-changer for those first days on snow."" We love the Union Cadet One because it’s designed to make snowboarding fun and frustration-free for the youngest riders. Sized specifically for small boots, it’s lightweight, easy to use, and soft-flexing—helping kids focus more on linking turns and less on wrestling with gear. Whether it’s their first day on the mountain or practicing balance at home, the Cadet One sets them up for success. The C1 Duraflex baseplate and highback provide just the right mix of support and forgiveness, while the single-strap system keeps things simple with a secure, comfortable fit. An extruded aluminum heelcup and steel-reinforced ratchets bring the same durability Union is known for, scaled down for kids who are just getting started. Compatible with every major mounting system, the Cadet One makes it easy to get young riders set up right. Start ‘em young. Start ‘em right."
