Expert verdict

The K2 Mindbender 89Ti Skis are a fantastic choice for those who love carving up groomers but still want the flexibility to explore off-piste. With its Titanal Y-Beam construction, this ski offers a perfect balance of stability and agility, making it a joy to ride on hardpack and through moguls. The narrower waist width makes it nimble, while the All-Terrain Rocker profile ensures you can handle a variety of conditions. It's a great pick for intermediate to advanced skiers who want a reliable, versatile ski that doesn't compromise on performance.

When soft snow is in short supply, turn to the K2 Mindbender 89Ti men’s freeride ski. Although it's built with the same Titanal Y-Beam construction and All-Terrain Rocker profile as its other metal-reinforced Mindbender siblings, the 89Ti stands apart thanks to a narrower waist width. Its All-Terrain Rocker profile knows no bounds and keeps you nimble enough to navigate bumps, trees, and the occasional chop. The result is a ski that has the precise edge hold you need to dominate the hardpack but is still wide enough for forays into the ungroomed.

Love the ski, topsheet not so much.

Originally posted at k2snow.com on Oct 30, 2024
I bought 89Ti's at the end of January 2024 and spent 25 days on them. I love the way the ski feels underfoot and it was able to handle all the conditions that Ontario skiing tried to throw at them. The only disappointing aspect of the skis was the quality of top sheet. First day riding and I had two massive splinters coming off the outside edge of the top sheets. I do not ride the park. My last pair of K2's had less top sheet chips over 10 years of use, than this pair has had in 25 days.

Great picks for Icy Terrain!
5 /5
Nate was incredibly knowledgeable. I came to curated because I was worried about the differences between Colorado, where I live now, and Virginia, where I am moving to. I knew that my set-up was not gonna cut it for the icy grommed trails of the eastcoast and nate helped me find the right tech for the new terrain I was going to be experiencing! THANK YOU!

This is a new business model for me: personal expert guiding me through an expensive purchase. I was a little worried this was AI or at least someone who wanted me to spend max money. However, Christian was not pushy, sent me a lot of info when I asked questions, and guided me towards the best items in my budget. I’d definitely recommend Curated.

First time I ever used Curated and I got paired with a stand-up guy (Jared), he helped me through the process of picking a new board - I've been hesitant to pull the plug on a new one but he got me a great deal and gave me the best options that fit my needs on the mountain. Total bro, 100% recommend - made my curated experience easy and stress free.

He responded back asap for just about a week with me about multiple skis and made sure that he curated my exact needs and I purchased skis and bindings and he even adjusted a price to match a deal that I made him aware of . Couldn’t be more happy and can’t wait to test the new set out

Every year at Christmas I try to get my daughter a snowboarding starter kit and its always so hard. The people in sotres kinda treat you like tgeyre better than you if youre looling for a reasonable deal. There's never what you actually want available. Nicholas was super helpful. I told him what I needed and he picked out all the perfect gear for my duaghter. Im so glad I woke up this morning, googled snowboarding starter kits, and Curated was tye first thing that came up in my search. Thanks, Nick. You just made my duaghters Christmas. And you found me a reasonable deal without sacrificing quality and and the little things that made this set special for my diaghter.

I had a great experience. Logan took all the guesswork out of this purchase, explained each spec so I could make the best purchase for my level and progression, and even sourced some extra options to make sure I was 100% happy. 10 out of 10! I won’t make a purchase like this any other way in the future.
