K2 Boy`s Youth Bad Seed Skis
Kids need a mid fat twin tip for all mountain and off piste riding too. The Bad Seed delivers with 85mm of width under foot for those groms who want a wider waisted, all mountain twin tip. The ski is predictable in softer snow but still has plenty of sidecut for the groomers making it versatile in any conditions.

Factory Team Specific Construction
- 3.5 mm Edges
Most of our Factory Series skis come with a thicker more durable steel edge to prolong the life of the ski. Normal thickness of an edge is around 2.5 mm whereas the Factory Series skis use a 3.5 mm edge to withstand the added abuse. This thicker edge is more resistant to impact, grinding and cracking for a more durable ski.
Torsion Box Technology
Torsion Box construction is the foundation for the widest range of skis designed by K2. Depending on the dimensions of a ski, and the amount of flex and torsion designed into it, one model of a Torsion Box ski can differ greatly from another. The versatility in the construction enables K2 to build everything from learning through expert level skis, sharing the common traits of ease, forgiveness, responsiveness, and energy that can be found in all Torsion Box skis.
Cap Construction
Cap skis are built with a sophisticated molding process that envelops the core and internal materials with the top layer of the ski. Capped skis share the common characteristics of being very durable and lightweight.The construction process is nearly identical for an entry and expert level ski. What determines the characteristics of the ski are the variations in the layers of the core materials. For this reason, cap skis can be used for just about any type of skiing and performance level.
Triaxial Braiding
Triaxial Braiding was developed by K2 in 1988 and is still the best way to apply fiberglass to a wood core. This process consists of sending a milled wood core through the patented Triaxial Braiding machine, where interlocking strands of fiberglass wrap the core. This unique method produces skis that have a great deal of torsional or twist rigidity and strength, while maintaining the lively innate flex characteristics of its wood core.
