It’s commonly known and widely accepted that the low-100’s waist range is the best for freeride performance, and the K2 Mindbender 106C Women’s Skis are no exception to the rule. Returning for the new season with an updated carbon construction, the Mindbender 106C resurfaces more playful than ever before and enlists the expertise of K2’s Carbon Spectral Braiding to achieve this. With tighter cross-hatching in the shovel and looser weaving in the rear, this unique braiding technology is able to achieve a similar effect as the Titanal Y-Beam but at a reduced weight. As a result, the Mindbender 106C becomes one of the most weight-conscious rippers in the Mindbender lineup and thus appeals to the more adventurous female skier seeking an easily maneuverable ride at the advanced level. When combined with a mid-fat waist and a lightweight core, the Mindbender 106C becomes quite the agile performer that boasts the perfect construction and profile combination for tearing up groomers or diving into the deep. With a women’s-specific design that rips in every set of conditions, the K2 Mindbender 106C Skis are more resilient now than ever before.
