Spectral Braid

An extension of K2’s Torsion Control Design, Spectral Braid is a first of its kind variable angle reinforcement that allows for precision tuned torsion and flex by altering the fiber orientation along the length of the ski. Lively, energetic, and remarkably composed; Mindbender skis with K2’s Spectral Braid have stability and control in spades while remaining hyper-maneuverable.

Uni-Directional Flax

Flax is a lightweight and sustainable natural fiber reinforcement fabric that improves a skis ability to track in variable terrain resulting in improved suspension and composure.

All-Terrain Rocker™

Gradual rise in the tip with a short, low section in the tail for greater versatility in all conditions.

Aspen Veneer

Lightweight and resilient, aspen is a great all-around core material.

Carbon Spectral Braid -Tighter angles in the braid create more torsional stiffness (resisting twisting forces, crucial for edge hold), while looser angles allow for more longitudinal flex and playfulness. This results in a ski that is significantly lighter, more energetic, and quicker edge-to-edge than its metal counterpart, while still providing targeted stiffness where needed (like underfoot).
Aspen Veneer Core - Aspen provides a good balance of light weight, energy, and snappiness. It contributes to the ski's overall agility and lively feel, making it less demanding than skis with denser hardwood cores.
All-Terrain Rocker - Featuring a gradual rise in the tip for predictability and easy turn initiation in varied snow, camber underfoot for edge grip and energy on firmer snow, and a shorter, lower rise in the tail for control, stability, and ease of releasing the turn. This provides a blend of float in soft snow, maneuverability, and reliable edge hold suitable for the wide range of conditions in freeride skiing.
SlantWall - The ABS sidewall is slanted at a 30° angle, which aims to increase agility and responsiveness while maintaining solid edge grip. It contributes to a lower swing weight and quicker feel.
