Spark R&D Arc Splitboard Bindings 2022

Absolute versatility for every backcountry adventure  

The Spark R&D Arc is the most popular splitboard binding at Spark. No wonder, the binding with the middle flex is a real all-round talent. It is slightly lighter than the Spark Surge and can handle any terrain. Whether long climbs, treeruns or steep faces, you can rely on the Arc 100%.
 
Tesla T1 Splitboard Technology
The T1 binding system is a developed, proven and tested system by Spark R&D. Thanks to the Snap Ramps and the Touring Brackets you can easily slip the T1 binding into touring mode on the side. You simply slide the binding onto the offset touring bracket and close the snap ramp to secure everything without tools, pins, cables or constant groping.

Highback
The Arc comes with Sparks Rip 'N' Flip Highback and a mid flex tuned to the Arc for a surfy feel. The Rip 'N' Flip Highback can be changed from touring mode (-13°) to riding mode in seconds with a small lever. In riding mode, you can adjust the Forward Lean continuously between 0° and 22°. The side cut-outs on the highback are compatible with Sparks Strappy Strap, which gives you even more support on the ascent.

Baseplate
A CNC-milled aluminium baseplate with maximum recesses provides power and lightness. In addition, the recesses allow you to make small adjustments to the binding angle without the need for a template and without removing the binding. The Climbing Wire Whammy Bar is built into the baseplate, saving you extra weight. With the small lateral lever you can easily adjust the climbing aid to 12° or 18° with the stick.

Straps
The Pillow Line Straps are manufactured at Spark in the USA. The one-piece 3D Straps are ultra-light and extremely durable. The Pillow Line Straps of the Arc are slightly narrower and have the Flex Window, for more freedom of movement and a surfy feeling. The bomber ratchets are produced by Burton have long proven themselves.
