K2 Girl`s Youth Missy Twin Tip Skis
Boys are not the only kids skiing parks and dropping into the half pipe these days. Like many other action sports, girls are found right alongside the boys skiing the exact same terrain and park features. The Missy ski is designed specifically for the girls who need a twin tip too. The Missy is built with the same construction, materials and flex as the Juvy, but comes with a more feminine graphic.

K2 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.
