The most easy-going model in K2's long Mindbender menu, the K2 Mindbender 85 Skis are light and confidence-inspiring, and a great way to transition from narrow, flat-tailed rental or beginner models. With the Aspen Micro Block core used in all the Mindbenders but without the metal laminate, the "85" features predictable but forgiving performance and easy direction changes.
