2024 K2 Mindbender 85 Ski

As one of the most beginner-friendly skis in the Mindbender lineup, it comes as no surprise that the K2 Mindbender 85 Skis are back by popular demand and, aside from an epic graphic refresh, will return unchanged for the new season. In boasting the same shape and profile as its wider counterparts, the Mindbender 85 resurfaces just as energetic and versatile as its siblings but lacks the power derived from their carbon- and titanal-powered constructions. Thus, the Mindbender 85 remains strategically tailored to less experienced skiers seeking an intuitive and energetic ride tailor-made for entry-level applications. In enlisting the expertise of an Aspen wood core, the Mindbender 85 is able to achieve an unrivaled level of consistency throughout the length of the ski, resulting in a ride that remains stable, flexible, and—when combined with a subtle dose of rocker in the tip—unsurprisingly predictable. Though on the simple end of the construction spectrum, the K2 Mindbender 85 Skis come at no cost to performance and continue the K2 trend of impeccable versatility in a friendly and forgiving frame.
