The Curated Take

By the Expert Community

This is a really popular ski so I was excited to put them to the test. I got a couple good runs at Snowbasin Utah in March and got to try them in some different snow conditions. On piste they did really well, solid edge hold, quick and easy to turn. In the moguls they fared alright, not the best but not a problem either. They also did decently in the trees and fresh snow, but any more snow than the couple inches that I was skiing and they would sink. Not a powder ski, but solid versatility for a 90mm wide ski. Overall I loved how forgiving they were, I felt confident and at ease in turns and transitioning from turn to turn. I only got nervous when I got going a bit fast and put a lot of pressure into the skis, they weren't quite stiff enough for super aggressive skiing or larger skiers. A beginner to intermediate skier looking to adventure all over the mountain would have a great time on these.

Ideal for
  • Forgiving
  • Maneuverable
  • Easy to turn
Not ideal for
  • Not stable at top speeds
  • Not wide enough for much floatation in fresh snow
  • Not stiff enough for aggressive skiers

Harnessing the same Spectral Braid technology featured in some of its wider brethren, the Mindbender 90C offers precise torsional rigidity with a high-energy vibe. Ideal for lighter skiers or those who don’t need the stability and stiffness of a metal laminate ski, the Mindbender 90C’s Aspen Veneer core and All-Terrain Rocker profile will deliver a fun, lively ride anywhere on the hill.

Hayden was super helpful
5 /5
I came onto this website not sure what to expect, and I'm walking away with a new pair of skis and bindings that I am confident will work great for me. Hayden was super knowledgable on the many types of skis and helped me with the many many questions I had for him. He was also super fun and light hearted which made my buying experience that much better. I will definitely be recommending Hayden and this website to others looking to buy skis, and will appreciate all he did for me :)

I needed to get some snowboards for my boys for Christmas. Christian recommended a few different options then he explained in a video why he chose those products so I could make a decision. He was very knowledgeable and I appreciated him finding me the best deal he could. He was awesome and I would recommend him to everyone!

Vince was all around the best
5 /5
Vince and I went back and forth for over a week finding me the perfect gear. He was dedicated to finding me the best deals for my needs, and he was always great with giving me multiple recommendations. When things I wanted went out of stock, or when my original boots didn't fit, he made sure to find me an equally amazing product. I felt cared for and valued as a shopper, and what is the best in my book, is that it was all so humanized as I NEVER felt like I was being pressured into buying anything, which so many retailers do. This guy knows what he is talking about and will make sure you feel confident in your gear purchases!

This was our first time not going into an in person shop to purchase gear. Jennifer was knowledgeable and gained my trust to purchase online rather than in person. Would highly recommend (and actually already have) to friends because the experience was effortless and seamless. Thanks Jennifer!
