The K2 Mindbender 85 Women's Skis are designed for intermediate female skiers looking to get off the groomers and into more adventurous terrain. At 85-millimeters underfoot, it provides an agile, forgiving platform that excels in a variety of conditions. Construction starts with a lightweight Aspen Veneer core which provides a nice forgiving flex and some solid stability. Camber in the center of the ski along with K2's Slantwall construction makes sure you're still getting confidence-inspiring edge hold on hard-packed snow. The Rocker profile of this ski is shaped in such a way that features a low and gradual rise both in the tip and the tail, so when you tip the ski on edge you get to take advantage of a long effective edge which adds stability through the turn, but as you ride the ski with a flatter base and lower edge angle, you can pivot the ski very easily which gives the ski a very maneuverable and easy going feel. 85 millimeters under foot is the perfect width to maintain carving performance on firmer snow, but it still provides the necessary platform to handle ungroomed terrain where you would typically find a lot of varying snow conditions. Ladies, if you are an intermediate skier who wats to progress with your skills and explore more of the mountain than just the corduroy, then the K2 Mindbender 85 Women's Skis are right up your alley.
