Spark took the ready-to-rage Surge ST binding and went over every component with a fine-toothed comb looking for ways to improve performance and drop weight. The product of that effort is the new Spark R&D Surge ST Pro Splitboard Bindings, and they’re a thing of beauty. When you can’t afford to give up performance going uphill OR downhill, and you’re going deep enough for every gram to count, the Surge ST Pro is the way to go.

Tour Mode

Improved ST (Smooth Touring) Mode– Spark injection molds a proprietary thermoplastic over existing aluminum or steel parts in a process called “overmolding,” reducing friction and improving durabillity.

ST Whammy Bars– Overmolded plastic blend where the climbing wire meets the baseplate to eliminate stickiness. (Note: not backward compatible with previous Arc, Surge or other older models)

ST Touring Brackets– Overmolded with low-friction proprietary plastic over and through the bracket holes in the aluminum base – strong, smoother pivoting, and lasts 4 times longer than the old brass bushing.

Hollow Pivot Pins– Made with stainless steel and hollowed out tobe 33% lighter than standard pins

Baseplate

CNC Machined Baseplates– CNC machined baseplates remain solid for maxstiffness and durability. All of the baseplate sidewindows have been partially filled to increasedurability and strength

7075 Aluminum Heel Loops– 7075 Aluminum heel loops are thinner andlighter than our standard heel loops whilemaintaining the required strength.

Straps

Pebax® Pillow Line Straps, Ladders and Adjusters– Pebax® is a plastic commonly used in high-end alpine touring ski boots, It is stiff, tough and 20% lighter than the standard material used.

Buckles

Proven Burton Buckles

Carbon Reinforced Asym Rip ‘N’ Flip Highbacks– Asymmetrical design features individual leftand right highbacks that slope inward matchingthe rider’s stance / The upper section is flatter for improved lateral mobility / More material at the base for increasedlongevity and durability / Higher bottom edge won’t snag on bootswith crampon welts or soles that wrap highon the heel

Flippin’ FLAD toggles between your forward lean angle and -13° touring position for easy transitions.

Lateral slots for our BD Touring Strap for greater edge control while skinning.

Ability Level: Advanced-Expert Advanced-ExpertWhether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you’ll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.
