Mindbender 115C W (2023)

We tasked K2 pros like Mckenna Peterson and Anna Segal with perfecting a versatile powder crusher, and accepted the challenge of delivering the fat ski they’ve always wanted. With their feedback in mind, the 115 C is versatile enough to take on even the burliest of lines while still remaining playful on powder.

The 115C W’s are built upon a lightweight Aspen Veneer Core and infused with our Power Rocker profile to maximize float and resiliency on those long powder days. Strapped with our Spectral Braid technology, these skis maintain both precise maneuverability and stability underfoot – the ultimate secret weapon to any backcountry descent
