Why We Like The Spark R & D 22/23 Surge ST Pro Bindings

Enhancing performance and reducing weight, the Spark R & D 22/23 Surge ST Pro Bindings are an upgraded version of the standard Surge bindings, designed for professionals.

In order to maintain stiffness without adding extra weight, Spark R & D reinforced the Rip 'N' Flip highback with carbon, resulting in a lighter binding without compromising performance.

Spark R & D has gone above and beyond to ensure that this professional model is as light as possible. Even the included hardware and Pebax pillow straps have been optimized to reduce weight.

Here are the key details:

• Spark R & D's high-performing split binding, now even lighter
• The carbon-reinforced highback makes this the most rigid binding in Spark's lineup
• Pebax Pillow Line straps offer consistent stiffness and outstanding durability
• Features the ST Whammy bar climbing wire with two heel risers for efficient uphill climbing
• Improved ST (Smooth Touring) Mode reduces friction and ensures long-lasting performance
