Freeride ski boots - Men -
The Mindbender Team are freeriding/freetouring ski boots for men from K2.
The Mindbender range has been designed targeting several major points: lightness, liveliness and fit customisation to meet the demands of freeriders, who are more and more fond of wide open spaces and therefore of hiking up to a summit with skis on their backs.
To achieve this, K2 has developed a new type of Powerlite Shell, based on the principle of reinforcement in sensitive and strategic areas while refining less essential spaces. This seems to be the basic design premise, but it's also a task requiring craftsmanship that the American brand has achieved with the use of 4 different densities of TPU. All this offers a perfect balance between agility, power and lightness, which allows for easy climbs and all the support you expect from a freeride boot on a descent.
The Mindbender obviously has low-tech inserts for touring bindings, although they are perfectly suited for alpine bindings. They also have 50° of movement for an extremely natural ride, whether on the flat or in steep terrain. The GripWalk soles are also perfectly adapted since their curved "rocker" shape allows for easy walking, and the grip is adapted to technical terrain.
This version of the boot is perfect for men looking for backcountry adventure. With a flex of 140, this high-performance ski boot built like those that came before it will meet all your requirements. It has a 50° travel offering an ideal walking comfort for approaches in search of virgin slopes.
Put simply, this Mindbender Team is designed for light, intermediate or expert freeriders who want innovative, durable and high-performance equipment.
