K2 Mindbender 116c

The Mindbender 116c is the widest ski in the K2 Mindbender series and, according to the manufacturer, is nothing less than "the ultimate big-mountain powder ski". Reason enough for us to have two testers scrutinise the ski in two lengths. In our gear review, you can find out how the innovative combination of carbon fibre mesh and wood core built into the ski has proven itself in practice.

The Mindbender 116 is the widest ski in the new Mindbender series from K2. Thanks to a Paulownia core construction, the ski is relatively light for its width and therefore versatile. We are giving away a Mindbender 116 in 186 cm length with special edition topsheet design!

It's getting cold outside, even in the previously barren northern Alps there is now at least some snow in most of the valleys and in the pedestrian zones of the world there are sometimes more, sometimes less tasteful Christmas lights. All of this is an unmistakable sign that Christmas, the end of the year and a new winter are on the horizon.
