The Spark R&D binding is the lightest splitboard compatible strap binding. The Spark R&D binding eliminates “foot roll ” problem with the standard splitboarding setup. With standard bindings the baseplate is not fully supported by the board. The pucks are not stiff or wide enough to support the bindings by themselves. With the Spark R&D binding the gap between the binding and the board is eliminated. The binding baseplate is fully supported, and is as stiff side to side as a standard binding on a normal snowboard. This means that rider input goes to the board, rather than flexing the interface parts. This results in a higher level of control. Weight savings for a pair of bindings can be anywhere from 162 to 932 g (5.1 to 34 oz). A lighter setup is more fun to ride, and tours with less effort.
Spark R&D bindings reduces the ride and touring height by approximately one half. This increases the level of control while riding, and makes a splitboard feel like a standard snowboard. With a standard splitboard setup the height of the slider track, gasket, and binding baseplate all add up. The Spark R&D binding combines these structures into one plate, removing unneeded structure and weight. The height while touring is reduced by a similar fraction. This height reduction in touring mode increases edge control and decreases ankle fatigue.
Including LT Pin System: A new touring bracket and pin combination for splitboarders, looking for better performance and durability. The LT Pin System is stiffer, lighter and slop free, for a more efficient tour.
- Aluminum pins are half the weight of standard Spark pins, shaving 3.5oz/100g off the setup.
- Self-lubricating plastic bushings within the touring bracket drastically reduce wear and allow the use of 7075 aluminum pins.
