The all-new K2 Mindbender 96C is the ideal choice if you’re looking for an all-mountain ski that will give you comfort on a wide variety of terrain, including hard, groomed sections, moguls or the occasional powder day. With K2’s patented Spectral Braid technology, which incorporates fiber reinforcement with variable angles to optimize twist and flexibility, the 96C delivers a lively and energetic carving experience. In addition, the unidirectional linen helps ensure good grip on variable terrain.
Test results rank it as an excellent ski for fun in the “backcountry,” in all snow conditions, for intermediate and advanced skiers. The support of the K2 Mindbender 96C will make you feel confident in turn entry, when it’s time to play with the edge and cut through the snow, or when tackling uneven sections where you need to adapt quickly. This ski offers a mix of playfulness and stability that will make you feel comfortable wherever you take it. Thanks to the technology used, it has perfect vibration absorption and excellent handling on the steepest terrain thanks to the Uni-Directional Flax involving flax as a natural reinforcing fabric. In summary, the K2 Mindbender 96C is a versatile and fun all-mountain ski that allows you to enjoy your snow days to the fullest, regardless of the conditions.
