Prerequisites
Surgebinding is not innate to Rosharans. They gain the ability depending on their actions.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>
no válida; las referencias sin nombre deben tener contenido It is thought that the Divine Attributes in the Ten Essences table determine if one can become a Surgebinder as well as which Surges they will be able to manipulate. These behaviors attract the attention of one of the ten spren that give access to Surgebinding.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>
no válida; las referencias sin nombre deben tener contenido The spren and the Surgebinder, then, forms a Spiritual bond known as Nahel bond.[Falta cita]
Which Surges the Surgebinder can manipulate depends on with what kind of spren he or she forms a Nahel bond.

Abilities
Adhesion
The Adhesion Surge grants the Surgebinder power over pressure and vacuum. It can be used to bind objects together with such strength that the material will break before the bond.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>
no válida; las referencias sin nombre deben tener contenido The strength and duration of the bond are determined by the amount of Stormlight that is infused.
Such a bond can be created in various ways. The most obvious way is for a Surgebinder to infuse one object with Stormlight and presses it up against another. The interface will glow faintly (until the bond breaks) and will attract bindspren. Or, the Surgebinder infuses an area with Stormlight which will then stick any object that comes into contact with it.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>

Windrunners and Bondsmiths have access to this Surge. Creation of these bonds is known colloquially as a Full Lashing among Windrunners.
Gravitation
The Gravitation Surge grants the Surgebinder power over gravity. It can be used to alter the direction and strength of an objects' gravitational attraction. There are two main implementations of this power, depending on whether the Surgebinder is affecting objects directly or indirectly.
The first method alters an object's or being's spiritual gravitational bond to the planet below, instead temporarily linking it to a different object or direction. It allows the Surgebinder to run up walls, send objects or people flying off into the air. Advanced users of Basic Lashing can make themselves lighter by binding only a portion of their mass upward. Binding a quarter of one's mass upward effectively halves that person's weight. Similarly, it is possible to use multiple Basic Lashings to make a being's effective weight higher.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>

The second method creates a bubble around an object that imitates its spiritual link to the ground beneath it. In effect, this makes the infused object pull other objects towards itself. It is much harder for Reverse Lashing to affect objects touching the ground, where their link to the planet is strongest. Objects falling or in flight are the easiest to influence. Other objects can be affected, but the Stormlight and skill required are much more substantial. This ability is believed to be a specialized version of Basic Lashing.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>

Division

Abrasion
The Adhesion Surge grants the Surgebinder power over friction. It can be used to alter the friction on the surface of the Surgebinder's body, allowing the Surgebinder to slide on the floor on until the friction is made normal or the Surgebinder runs out of stormlight.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>

Progression
The Progression Surge grants the Surgebinder power over growth and healing. It can be used to heal wounds and cause plants to grow at a rapid pace.
Growth accelerates organic growth to tremendous speeds. The Surgebinder can infuse the seeds to a plant with Stormlight and in seconds, it will become fully developed. It is unknown if this ability only works on plants.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>

Illumination
The Illumination Surge grants the Surgebinder power over light, sound, and various waveforms. It can be used to create stationary or moving visual illusions in addition to creating sound.
Transformation
The Transformation Surge grants the Surgebinder power over Soulcasting. Soulcasting transforms any material into one of Surgebinder's choice. Transforming something into the pure form of an Essence is quite easy.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>
no válida; las referencias sin nombre deben tener contenido Soulcasting requires the corresponding gemstone for the Essence the Surgebinder is trying to transform into. Soulcasting something into blood, for example, requires a garnet infused with Stormlight.[Falta cita] The process may leave the gemstone shattered, although the larger the gemstone the less likely it is for that to happen.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>

Transportation
The Transportation Surge grants the Surgebinder power over Motion and Realmatic Transition. It appears to grant the power of instantaneous teleportation of the Surgebinder, though restrictions on this power are not known.
Cohesion
The Cohesion Surge grants the Surgebinder power over Strong Axial Connections. It can be used to alter objects at a molecular level; for example, a Surgebinder can push her hand into a table and leave a permanent handprint.Error en la cita: Etiqueta <ref>

Tension
The Tension Surge grants the Surgebinder power over Soft Axial Connections. It is unclear precisely what abilities this Surge grants. A possible example might be: they could walk across quicksand or water with out sinking.
