Spark R&D Surge ST Pro Splitboard Binding
The Spark R&D Surge ST Pro Splitboard Binding is the premium version of Spark's stiff binding for splitboarders who ride steep, technical lines and want the most response at the lowest weight. Carbon-reinforced nylon highbacks, Pebax Pillow Line straps, 7075 aluminum heel loops and aluminum hardware cut weight from the Surge without softening it. At 610 g per binding in a Medium, with Tesla T1 touring and an ST Whammy Bar at 12 and 18 degrees, the Surge ST Pro suits steep lines, long approaches and big objectives.

CCBB Binding Profile
Why We Like It
- Carbon-reinforced nylon highbacks are lighter and stiffer than Spark's glass-reinforced highbacks, for quick response on steep terrain.
- Pebax Pillow Line straps hold their flex in the cold, and the wide Surge ankle strap supports the boot all the way around.
- 7075-T6 aluminum hardware replaces seven stainless steel parts, with hex heads that resist stripping and hollow pivot pins.
- Smooth Touring brackets and the ST Whammy Bar keep the touring side quiet, with risers at 12 and 18 degrees.
Best Uses
- Steep and technical lines
- Long approaches to big objectives
- Aggressive riders who want less weight
- Stiff boards
- Soft boot splitboarders, XS to Large
Mounting and Setup Advice
Spark sizes its bindings in one unisex line from XS to Large, so choose on boot size; the 610 g figure is for a Medium.
On the board side, the binding needs Spark Flat Pucks or Spark Canted Pucks, sold separately, and then works with any puck-compatible splitboard. If you are mixing hardware generations, ST bindings need ST Whammy Bars, while ST bindings run on older Tesla brackets. Bring your board in so we can set puck placement and stance.
