SKI K2 Mindbender 85 Women's

Designed for the progressing intermediate female skiers looking to get off the groomers and into more adventurous terrain, the Mindbender 85W provides an agile, forgiving platform that excels in a variety of conditions. Oufitted with a Slantwall construction, a 30-degree angle to the sidewall in K2’s Hybritech construction, The 85W is responsive while maintaining accuracy and power. Sharing the same Aspen Micro Block core and All-Terrain rocker, a gradual rise in the tip for great versatility in all conditions, with a low, short rise in the tail for added control in variable snow as some of its bigger siblings, the 85W maintains its versatility, float and control.

This ski does not come with bindings. We recommend a pair of bindings with a brake from 5 up to 10 mm wider than this ski. Please feel free to contact our customer service if you have a question about binding compatibility. If you buy skis and bindings together we can mount them for you free of charge.
