The Spark R&D Surge ST Bindings are stiff, powerful, and built for big line riders and backcountry legends who demand unwavering performance. With a beefed-up ankle strap and a responsive highback, they deliver maximum control and drive when the terrain gets serious. Whether you're dropping no-fall zones or charging alpine faces, the Surge ST is your go-to for big days in big mountains.
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 Bar Climbing Wire – Built right into the baseplate. Overmolded plastic where the bar contacts the baseplate allows for super-smooth climbing wire deployment and transitions.
ST Touring Brackets – Incorporates the best features of aluminum and thermoplastics. Spark R&D overmolds their custom plastic blend over and through the holes in the aluminum base, forming bushings that are incredibly durable.
ST Whammy Bars – A single fatty wire with a side arm lever. Overmolded thermoplastic sections allow you to switch easily from stowed, to low (12°), to high (18°) climbing positions and back again while touring. Includes an overmolded sleeve of plastic on both sides of the bar, right where the climbing wire contacts the baseplate. This reduces friction allowing for super smooth movement into and out of high, low, and stowed positions.
T1 Heel Rest – Catches the climbing wire in the 12° and 18° positions.
Snap Ramps – Bindings slide sideways into offset touring brackets and are locked into place with our snap ramps.
CNC Machined Baseplates – Solid for maximum stiffness and durability.
Pillow Line Straps – Lightweight, durable, comfortable, waterproof, one-piece molded construction, and made 100% in-house. Surge ST ankle straps are wide and asymmetrical around the boot for incredible all-around support.
Ladders & Straps – Produced with unique thermoplastics that maintain flex over a wide temperature range
Bomber Buckles – These incorporate Burton's time-tested bomber buckles.
Surge ST Asym Rip "N" Flip Highbacks – These have a high amount of glass fiber fill for a stiff ride and maximum response. They feature individual left and right highbacks for natural ergonomics with a flattened top section giving riders great lateral mobility.
Requires Pucks for Mounting in Ride Mode – Spark Canted Pucks or Regular Pucks recommended (available to purchase separately)
