Who would love these

The K2 Mindbender 99Ti Skis are perfect for advanced skiers who crave speed and versatility with some forgiveness and maneuverability. If you love carving through mixed conditions and need a ski that can handle both groomers and off-piste, these are for you.

Why I recommend these

Stable and responsive
Versatile in mixed conditions
Powerful but forgiving

Expert verdict

The K2 Mindbender 99Ti Skis are a fantastic choice for those who love to charge down the mountain with confidence. These skis are all about stability and responsiveness, thanks to their Y-Beam construction. They handle mixed conditions like a pro, making them perfect for skiers who enjoy both groomers and off-piste adventures. However, if you're someone who prefers a more playful ride at slower speeds, these might feel a bit stiff. Overall, if you're an advanced skier looking for a reliable, high-performance ski that can handle a variety of terrains, the Mindbender 99Ti is a solid pick. It's also a little more forgiving in the tips and tails than other advanced-expert level skis constructed with Titanal. That makes them more nimble and maneuverable in tight spaces without sacrificing stability at speed.

The Mindbender 99Ti boasts equal parts agility and versatility. With the hard charge you’d expect from a narrower ski, the Mindbender 99Ti utilizes its Y-Beam construction to remain maneuverable underfoot. This men’s freeride ski is the go-to model for confident ripping all over the mountain, and is loved by pros like Jonny Mosley and Greg Hope.

Ben Cavett owns this product
I really enjoyed the chance to bend my mind on a freeride ski that is also a daily usable ski. I found this ski excelled at speed and in mixed conditions. The TI of this ski adds a great suspension element that allows me to feel confident in every condition. It was also very nimble in tree runs and moguls... Read more

Blown away

Originally posted at k2snow.com on Jan 8, 2025
These ski's are amazing! I was looking for something I could whip around in the bumps and trees and was shocked by how well they handled a bigger than expected powder day as well (left my powder skis at home). Wow! Really blown away, they are light, responsive, and blow through crud with no problem.

Luke was VERY patient helping me for over a year!!
5 /5
We started looking at a new ski set starting last year and here we are a year later and I have my gear on the way. Luke was able to guide me through sizing new boots, answer all my questions, and recommend just what I needed. Finally going to be back on my own skis this year, sooo excited! Thanks Luke

5 /5
Spencer was so helpful and kind to me. As a first time rider I was very nervous about getting the right gear that would fit me and be good for me as a beginner. Without hesitation Spencer has sent me a curated list that I completely loved and agreed with. All of his recommendations fit my criteria perfectly and when I asked for some else or something different he got it to me within a matter of seconds. I would recommend Spencer to literally anyone. Fast, knowledgeable, and kind. Absolutely loved him and makes me want to get out there even more!! 100/10

I have been conversing with Ken for over a year he would curate me a set up and I’d just ghost him. Well today I finally made the purchase and I feel confident he helped me choose the correct set up for my specific needs, and challenges. Plus he always recommended cost effective choices without the helmet my set up would have been under $600 which is killer because I got suckered into a blemed demo board 2 yrs ago that I paid $550 for just the board. Thank you Ken! I should be a pro soon if not it’s his fault! ;)

Really appreciated Taylor's willingness to listen and learn my ride style/life style to recommend a board that would suit me for this season of life. I've ridden rental boards for years and it was time to commit to my own rig. He had first hand experience on many of the boards I was considering and every bit of advice helped steer me into what I think will be the best board for me. Stoked for it to arrive and get it out on the mountain! Thanks for everything, Taylor!

This is my first board purchase and I had done a lot of research but making the final decision was daunting. Scott was super helpful, understood what would work for my skill level, and I'm suuuuper excited about what I ended up getting. It wasn't what I had in my cart initially but he gave great recommendations with lots of options. Can't wait to get on the mountain!!
