{{anchor|Full Lashing}}
* '''Full Lashing''': This ability creates an extremely powerful temporary bond between two objects. To use this ability, the Surgebinder infuses a surface with Stormlight, after which any object or person that comes in contact with the surface will be bound to it. Full Lashing does not necessarily require skin contact; surfaces can be infused by "spraying" the Stormlight onto them.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} Most objects would break apart themselves before the bond holding them would.{{book ref|sa2|part=ars}} The duration of this bond is determined by the amount of Stormlight infused. A Full LasingLashing can be powerful enough to bend the path of bullets.{{wob ref|3523}} The bond also attracts [[bindspren]].{{book ref|sa2|12}}
 
* '''Spiritual Adhesion''': Adhesion can be used by a [[Bondsmith]] to establish a [[Connection]] to someone in order to, at least, speak their language.{{book ref|sa3|65}} The full extent of this power is unclear, or whether [[Windrunner|Windrunners]] can use Adhesion in this fashion.
