K2 Youth Apache Jr. Skis

• TORSION BOX CONSTRUCTION -
  K2`s Torsion Box construction is their most widely used, yet simplest lay-up. The construction is a triaxially braided wood core ski. Braided Torsion Box skis tend to have lively and energetic characteristics that provide a high degree of rebound and performance. A triaxially braided wood core ski is still the benchmark and K2 continues to use it so widely because of it`s versatility and it`s ability to create so many different kinds of skis depending on the amount of flex and torsion.
  
  
• WOOD CORE -
  For men`s models a fir or fir/aspen core is used for its inherent strength, durability, and energy. A wood core, instead of foam, makes the ski more lively and responsive.
  
  
• TRIAXIAL BRAIDING -
  Triaxial Braiding was introduced by K2 in 1988 and has withstood the test of time to rise to the top as the best torsion box construction process available. The patented and proprietary technology wraps an interlocking fiberglass weave around the ski`s wood core at a 38 degree angle to produce skis that have a great deal of torsional rigidity and strength, while maintaining all the lively characteristics of a wood core ski.
  
  
• MOD TECHNOLOGY -
  MOD is basically an application of mass to the ski in order to quiet and dampen the ride. Traditional dampening methods consisted of simply increasing the thickness and flex of the ski`s core, getting damping benefits, but at the sacrifice of ease and forgiveness. What`s unique about Mod is the mass is applied as a secondary core, independent from the traditional, primary wood core. With this fine tuned amount of mass added separately, both cores can flex or move on top of one another. This allows overall ski flex to be unaffected, retaining ease, versatility, and liveliness, while greatly reducing vibrations and chatter.
