Mindbender 96 C Ski - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve skied the Mindbender 96C in everything from chalky steeps to spring corn, and it’s become my daily driver. It’s super quick edge to edge and surprisingly damp for how light it is. Whether I’m linking turns or charging chop, it just flows."

The K2 Mindbender 96C Ski is a one-ski quiver made for riders who want confidence across all conditions—from early morning groomers to surprise powder stashes. With its all-terrain rocker and lightweight Aspen Microblock core, it floats, arcs, and pivots with intuitive control, making every turn feel effortless.

Built with Spectral Braid construction and unidirectional flax, the 96C provides a stable yet lively ride with tuned torsional stiffness for both soft snow play and high-speed carving. The Bio Resin layup offers improved damping and environmental friendliness without sacrificing performance. Whether we’re railing through resort corduroy or dancing through tight trees, the Mindbender 96C is the perfect balance of precision and fun.
