The all-new K2 Mindbender 96 women’s redefines what it means to be a true one-ski quiver for the skiers who want confidence, power, and versatility across the entire mountain. Designed to arc clean turns on groomers while remaining composed in softer snow, it delivers a balanced, predictable feel that works from firm morning laps through to storm leftovers and mixed conditions. A lightweight Aspen–Paulownia core keeps the ski energetic and easy to handle, while under the hood, K2’s Dark Matter damping technology strategically places mass at key stability points to reduce vibration and improve control. A Titanal I-Beam running through the centre of the ski adds power and edge grip without unnecessary weight, creating a smooth, stable ride that remains responsive when pushed. With a 96 mm waist and confidence inspiring turn initiation, the Mindbender 96 blends carving performance with all-mountain versatility. Reliable, intuitive, and adaptable, it’s an ideal choice for skiers looking for one ski that can truly do it all, anytime and anywhere.

Dark Matter
Injected TPU pucks weighted with powdered stainless steel are intergrated into the core and over the edges at Enhanced Stability Points (E.S.P.). These locations are fine tuned to each model and size specifically to amplify performacne and purpose. Simply put, Dark Matter keeps vibrations down, keeping your skis and edges on-snow and in control when you need it most. No Bad Vibes.
Titanal I-Beam
We use less metal but put it where it counts. Two Titanal strips are buried in a lighter weight Aspen Paulownia Core to create a strong and stable backbone with added snap, energy and life.
Aspen Paulownia Core
Lightweight and resilient Aspen combined with flexible Paulownia creates a great all-around core material with excellent stregth-to-weight ratio.
