2024 K2 Mindbender 130 Ski Boot

As one of the stiffest, most powerful performers in the Mindbender lineup, it comes as no surprise that the K2 Mindbender 130 Ski Boots are back by popular demand and, aside from a sweet color refresh, will return unchanged for the new season. With a 130-flex value and a 98mm forefront last, the Mindbender 130 falls on the stiffest and narrowest end of the men’s performance spectrum and offers a bit more in terms of precision than its softer flexing counterparts. As a result, the Mindbender 130 appeals only to the most aggressive, slender-footed skier seeking unrivaled responsiveness at the expert level. Its Powerlite shell, Powerfit Pro Tour liner, and heat-moldable construction play into such power by endowing the Mindbender 130 with an ultra-stiff yet supportive foundation for exceptional energy transmission and responsiveness. The result is an unsurprisingly aggressive ride that—when combined with a Powerlock Spyne and integrated Tech Fittings—receives a meticulous touring upgrade to ensure the Mindbender 130 remains equally competent on both the downhill and the climb. With an abundance of performance features that align for both backcountry and touring intentions, it comes as no surprise that the K2 Mindbender 130 Ski Boots have taken the hybrid market by storm.
