Those are some good looking skis, the shapes look fun and the graphics appeal to me. I can't wait to hear more about them.
Curious about the 108 for those who have skied them and comparisons to other skis in the same width range like the Blizzard Rustler/Black Crowes Atris etc.
The focus right now is on the early release of the 108Ti/99Ti/90Ti/98Ti Alliance/90Ti Alliance. There will be two Mindbender junior skis coming, the Minbender Jr, which was formally the Pinnacle 84 junior and an all new Mindbender Team which will be 98mm underfoot.Apparently there is a mindbender youth ski as well.. what's the deal with that? Haven't heard boo about them.
Huh?!? I missed it.Phil's description that this is revolutionary caught my eye.
I must be mistaken. I thought he wrote revolutionary but I don't see that now so I must be mistaken.Huh?!? I missed it.

Thanks @SBrown... Apparently I don't read past the second paragraph ;-) That line like that should be front and center.It's there ... "Let's start with the ski that I have been skiing for the past month or so, the Mindbender 99Ti. It is truly a revolution, a ski that will take on the 98-100mm segment like a bull in a china shop."
It would be interesting to have my mind bended, and it sounds very much what I’m looking for to complement my Renoun Z90, a stable off-piste and bump ski that releases more easily than a carving-focused all-mountain ski.
I kept asking bootfitters if they "had a pair of the Luvs I could try on" and that could've been misconstrued to mean these:

More playful with a sharper turn in. I think the flex is a bit more balanced. The longer wheelbase (because if less rise) has a more stable feel. If you to relax on the ski, the Nordica pivots better, the Mindbender wants to charge a bit more but is not demanding like say a Bonafide.
