2025 K2 Mindbender 85 W Skis (162cm) w/ Marker Squire 10 Quikclik Bindings

The K2 Mindbender 85 W (Women's) is the most approachable and forgiving ski in the Mindbender family, designed for beginner-to-intermediate women skiers looking for a versatile, lightweight ski that excels on groomed runs but is ready to explore bumps and easy off-piste terrain. The 85 mm waist provides an excellent balance of quickness edge-to-edge for carving and stability in mixed snow. Its friendly and responsive performance comes from a simple yet effective construction featuring an Aspen Veneer Core, which provides a lively, lightweight, and resilient feel. Unlike its metallic siblings, the 85 W is built without Titanal, resulting in a softer, more manageable flex (rated around 4/10) that is perfect for developing technique and building confidence. K2's SlantWall construction provides a 30-degree angle to the sidewall, which enhances edge grip and responsiveness. The All-Terrain Rocker profile (Rocker/Camber/Rocker) features a gradual rise in the tip for easy turn initiation and float, with camber underfoot for reliable edge hold. The very short 11.9 m turning radius (estimated for the 162 cm length) makes this ski incredibly snappy and effortless for short-radius, carved turns. Condition Top Condition: 8 / 10 - Shows minor cosmetic wear, including light surface scratches and scuffs on the topsheet, consistent with moderate resort use. No heavy chipping or structural damage. Base Condition: 8 / 10 - Bases are smooth and flat, having minor cosmetic surface scratches. Edges are clean, sharp, and entirely intact.
