K2 Mindbender 89Ti W Women's Skis 2023
£565

Strong female skiers looking for a ski that will perform in all conditions need to consider the Mindbender 89Ti Y. A Ti Y-Beam and tuned Correct Flex core deliver power and grip to the edges for control on hard snow but keep the overall flex forgiving and smooth for tricky terrain. At 89mm under foot they are agile on piste but have ample float if you want to explore; the All Terrain Rocker ensures a balanced platform and predictable handling everywhere on the hill.Terrain Type & Ability LevelTerrain Type Suited to a variety of terrain, from groomers to fresh snow. The construction uses Ti, meaning it grips on firmer snow and at higher speeds. This is the ski to grab when it’s not waist deep and you want to rip up whatever conditions you find. It will carve all day long on marked trails but where it really shines is off to the side. Trees, slush, tracked-out pow, the 89Ti handles it all expertly.Skier TypeThe 88 Ti is ideally suited to advanced skiers, but that’s not to say that stronger intermediates and lighter expert skiers won’t get a lot from it. It’s as much about mindset as it is ability. This is for skiers looking to ski everywhere, in all kinds of snow conditions, realists who know that deep powder is a rare blessing, and who value a ski that genuinely works in every condition.OverviewShapeA 89mm waist is the sweet spot for this kind of ski; wide enough to float and still feel quick enough edge to edge for groomed slopes to be fun. The radius favours stability but, working with the rocker on the nose, helps with lift and initiation. The shallow rocker on the tail improves control and allows for easy release.RockerAll Terrain Rocker skis have a gradual rise to the tip for great versatility in all conditions, with a short, low rise in the tail for added control in variable snow.CoreAspen Veneer, aspen is lightweight and resilient, making it a great all rounder.ConstructionPowerwall construction ensures that power transfer is dramatically enhanced with the oversized ABS sidewalls that are laminated and pocketed within the wood core in the midbody of the ski. With the sidewall extending into the heart of the ski, the transmission of energy from skier to ski edge is direct and precise.Key FeaturesTitanal Y-Beam TechnologyTitanal has long been used in high-end skis and is known for providing a damp, stable ride at high speeds and on variable terrain, but K2’s Y-Beam technology takes things a step further with dramatically enhanced performance tuning. Y-shaped prongs set over the edges in the shovel of the ski provide precise, powerful turn initiation, while the narrower metal shape in the tail of the ski provides the support you need for charging while still remaining manoeuvrable, forgiving, and easy to break free from turns.Correct Flexeliminates the overly stiff, mid-section typically found on shorter length skis, leaving a smooth and consistent flex profile optimized on every size from longest to shortest.Size (cm)Tip Width (mm)Waist Width (mm)Tail Width (mm)Radius (m)Weight (g)1521308911410.9.158130891141216261641308911413.11757General InformationSkier Ability: Advanced|expertRocker: Tip/Tail RockerRadius: ShortBindings: Ski sold flatDIN: n/aConstruction: Semi SidewallCore: WoodDemo: No
