The Mindbender Team men’s-specific ski boot is new for the 2022-2023 season and is packed with performance enhancers. K2 increased the flex rating to 140 and kept the weight down to create a ski boot that’s stiff, powerful, nimble, and ready to take on both lift-assisted or backcountry endeavors. Take control of the mountain with K2’s customizable Powerfit Pro Tour liner, Powerlite Shell, and a walk mode, giving skiers 50 degrees of range of motion.
