K2 Mindbender 89Ti
Manufacturer’s statement
The Mindbender 89Ti is an all-mountain freeride ski with carving traits that won’t disappoint. Classic construction and dynamic turning behaviour, thanks to Titanal Y-Beam technology, deliver precise, predictable and smooth turn initiation and improved power transfer via the oversized ABS sidewalls. That makes the Mindbender 89Ti the perfect dynamic companion in all conditions.
SKIMAGAZIN verdict
The second-narrowest version of K2’s classic is one of the few AP models under 90 mm waist in this year’s Supertest. Accordingly, it impresses with clear piste orientation and solid off-piste values. “Gives lots of confidence, especially on rough piste, but requires an active style. Not a toy – a reliable partner for technically adept skiers!” notes an expert. A touch sluggish into the turn, but then tracks true. A great all-rounder for sporty holiday days with changeable conditions.
