Mindbender 96C Ski - 2026 - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I ride the 96C W when I want one ski that handles everything—steep groomers, chopped pow, and trees. It’s light and responsive, with just enough backbone to stay stable when the snow gets rough."

From firm morning laps to chasing soft snow stashes, the K2 Mindbender 96C W is built to handle whatever the mountain throws our way. Designed with all-terrain rocker and a versatile 96mm waist, this ski keeps us nimble on groomers, balanced in bumps, and surfing when the powder hits. It's the kind of ski we can trust from first chair to final turns.

The lightweight Aspen Microblock core is wrapped in a Spectral Braid for enhanced edge hold and stability, while Bio Resin and flax fibers smooth out the chatter without adding weight. That means more control when we're navigating off-piste terrain and less fatigue during long days of lift-access laps. Whether we're skiing the resort bell to bell or just want a go-to quiver-of-one ski, the 96C W delivers fun and confidence in equal measure.
