Spark R&D Surge
The 15/16 Spark R&D Surge’s “OneWire” riser system built into the baseplate makes for easy transitions to low (12o) and high (18o) climbing positions while splitboarding. Spark’s Tesla system does away with pins and cables, relying on the same simple mechanism to lock the binding into place during both climb and ride modes.
Every winter, the skiing and snowboarding industry gathers in Denver for SIA, an industry show presented by Snow Sports Industries America that allows manufacturers to display their newest wares to shop owners around the continent who in turn, bring the goods to you. Our man in the field, John Robison, toured the show and picked just a few of his favorites from SIA 2016 last weekend.
