| − | Gravitation can be manipulated to change the direction and strength of an object's gravitational attraction.{{book ref|sa2|part=ars}} The two orders of [[Knights Radiant]] with access to this [[Surge]] are the [[Windrunners]] and the [[Skybreakers]].{{book ref|sa2|3}} Gravitation can also be used by the [[Fused]] using [[Voidlight]].{{book ref|sa3|54}}{{book ref|sa3|121}} |

| − | === Basic Lashing === |
||
| − | This ability 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, or send objects or people flying off into the air. Lashings only affects gravitational pull and not mass, so different things with different masses will still fall at the same speed.{{wob ref|5907}} Lashings can only send something in a particular direction and can not be locked into following an object.{{wob ref|3848}} Lashing can also effect liquids.{{wob ref|5140}} Surgebinders can rotate themselves in the air using wind resistance.{{wob ref|8250}} Taking sharp turns while Lashing can cause the Surgebinder to black out.{{wob ref|10357}} |

| − | Advanced users of Basic Lashing can employ partial Lashings—a half Lashing upward, for example, would make the Surgebinder effectively weightless, while a quarter Lashing would halve the person's weight.{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} It is also possible to use multiple Basic Lashings simultaneously so that the infused object or being will be pulled toward different directions at once or pulled toward a single direction but stronger than gravity normally would.{{book ref|sa2|52}} Basic Lashing requires skin contact if the Surgebinder is trying to infuse an external object or being.{{book ref|sa2|85}} Basic Lashing continually consumes the [[Stormlight]] with which the object is infused until the object runs out of Stormlight or the Surgebinder dismisses their Lashing; so the length of Basic Lashing is dependent on the amount of Stormlight used.{{book ref|sa2|41}} |

| − | == Windrunner abilities == |
||
| − | The Windrunners use the Surges of [[Adhesion]] and Gravitation. The combination of these two Surges resulted in the three Lashings.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}}{{book ref|sa1|part=ars}} Using a combination of the two Surges, a Windrunner could theoretically exit orbit.{{wob ref|5806}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | === Reverse Lashing === |
||
| − | This ability creates a bubble around a surface 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.{{book ref|sa2|part=ars}} Reverse Lashing requires constant skin contact for it to work, though it consumes comparatively little Stormlight.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} |
||

| − | == Fused abilities == |
||
| − | The Fused accelerate slower than Surgebinders when using Gravitation. This is due to them expending less energy and does not have to do with the gravity of [[Braize]].{{wob ref|13221}} Over a large span, Fused will go faster than Surgebinders.{{wob ref|9412}} |
