Review:
The Union is new for 2016 with a 3-strut medium/higher aspect shape on a C-shaped platform with swept back wingtips that Airush is marketing as a freestyle capable freeride crossover. The Union features a large flow Boston valve that requires the larger inflation nozzle for a quick inflate, three steering settings on the wingtip that allow the rider to adjust for Bar Pressure and two settings on front bridle with three pulleys. The Union uses Airush's "Dyneema Load Frame" to add rigidity and long term durability to the canopy but this year the reinforcements are noticeably narrower than years past. Testers gave the Union high praise for its light to medium bar pressure and crisp steering response as well as noticeably bigger boosting power than the Lithium. The Union's steering arc is broader than the pivot style steering of the Lithium, but overall very quick turning and lively feeling with good depower. The Union relaunches well, but not quite as quick as the Delta-shaped Lithium. Testers recommend the Union as an excellent choice for the rider that wants a kite for hooked and unhooked freestyle as well as wave riding and general freeriding.
