K2 Mindbender Collection
A true passion project, the Mindbender Collection was designed for freeriders everywhere. Whether you're looking for a big mountain setup, a powerful and stable all-mountain slayer or a quick and precise bump eater, the Mindbender collection has what you're looking for. Mindbender is also hundreds of hours of designing, testing and tweaking. Through the process, K2 engineers focused on tuning the torsional and longitudinal flex properties of each model in the line for an optimal blend of edge grip and driftability. Two solutions emerged from this philosophy - a Y-shaped Titanal beam in the Ti models, and a variable angle carbon braid in the non-Titanal models. The Mindbender collection emphasizes performance in varying conditions and is purpose engineered for cutting through everything, for the most planted, yet fun freeride experience.
