Spark R&D has answered the call with a new accessory for the Tesla System this season. The Heel Lockers attach to the Tesla heel rest and are easily operated with the tip of a ski pole. Riders now have the ability to lock down the heel in tour mode to better adapt to diversified terrain types where quick descents, side-stepping, traversing and skate-splitting become a more effective means of backcountry travel.
Weight: 1.28oz/pr (35g)
Here’s a quick video we shot at the SIA trade-show in Denver showing the Heel Locker in action.

About Spark R&D
Spark R&D revolutionized the sport of splitboarding in 2005 with the introduction of the world’s first splitboard-specific strap binding. Since then they’ve refined their product line every year and helped evolve our sport. Spark R&D has been a supporter and friend of splitboard.com since their inception.
Based out of Bozeman, MT Spark R&D is rider owned and operated, dedicated to pushing innovation in the sport of splitboarding, since 2005. With a view of the Bridger Mountains from our shop, we design and build splitboard bindings and accessories with backcountry performance coming first.
All of the products are manufactured and/or assembled in a small shop in Bozeman, Montana USA. From machining to anodizing, laser engraving to assembly– everything is done by a skilled team of workers who are also passionate splitboarders. In-house design and manufacturing capabilities allow our products to quickly evolve and provides us the flexibility to cater to niche customers within the splitboarding market. Spark R&D continues to step it up; seeking perfection based on customer needs and rider feedback, keeping pace with the rapidly expanding splitboarding community.
Customer service is extremely important to us. We’re always looking for feedback and ideas to make our products better. If you have suggestions, we’d love to hear from you. Thank you for your support.
