Right in the middle of it all in the Mindbender line-up, you’ll find the K2 Mindbender 85 Skis. Starting with an Aspen wood core, the skis are on the lighter side of the spectrum, but when you add K2’s triaxial fiberglass laminate, you do get a bit of extra weight. Additionally, the Slantwall technology gets you up and off the ski a little bit and gives you some extra leverage over the edges. Just a bit more material underfoot, and you’ve got a boost in performance that goes a long way for the majority of skiers out there. By using the shaping and profile of the wider Mindbender skis, the 85 ends up being very versatile for a variety of conditions and terrain. Mild taper increases the float, making the ski plane better than its average 85 waist width would indicate. Pretty standard in the tail, with some rocker and taper, it generates a friendly end to the turn with some nice energy and rebound. Along with the full wood core, sidewall construction and camber underfoot provide great edge hold on firm snow while a bit of rocker in the tip and tail add versatility and maneuverability to the ski’s overall performance. A great progression tool for the intermediate skier or a developing youth skier, the K2 Mindbender 85 Skis combine forgiveness and confidence to take your skiing to a whole new level of success.
