Product Info
Sure, cutting ten thousand switchbacks up a refrozen sheet of ice is fun, but we all know that the real reason we all ski tour is for the way down. That's not to say you want gear that slouches on uphill performance, but if your boots makes the ski down any less fun, than what's really the point? Luckily, we have access to gear like the K2 Mindbender 120 Alpine Touring Ski Boots. Deigned to be super lightweight, with an effective and intuitive walk mode, these boots are money on the skin track. But the real value here is that when you lock them down, you're riding a full speed alpine freeride boot. They have a stiff flex, they're responsive and bomber, and they inspire confidence on the most aggressive of backcountry descents. For a freeride skier looking for one boot to do it all, the Mindbender 120 is hard to beat.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.
