from http://www.evogear.com/store/k2.aspx

- K2 has invested in art, design and raised the bar when it comes to ski graphics. Design icon Ryan Schmies has differentiated the K2 factory line ever since he designed the first Seth Pistol (Seth Morrison's pro model).

i beg to differ. from http://www.natives.co.uk/news/2002/0802/13seth.htm

A huge fan of roots punk, Morrison decided to name his signature ski after the group that rocked the world of music in the late 80's, the Sex Pistols. It is no coincidence that today's skiers are giving winter sports a whole new attitude. Morrision worked in collaboration with artist Josh Malay to ensure the graphics of the ski remained true to the punk era, portraying Morrison's autonomy and personality on and off the slopes.

Malay died in a fall during a shoot in Spain in '04. I think he hit his head on exposed rock :-(

Josh Malay was a good friend of Seth and an up and coming snowboarder. He designed the first Seth Pistols (the yellow ones, black and pink bases) as well as provided art for the second generation Seth Pistol the following year with the Union Jack base. He passed away after an accident in Spain, as noted above. I have since created Seth's graphics for his skis (4 years now) and we always include a little bit of Malay's stuff or a reference to him in there somewhere.

Malay was sick, I had a pic of him on a tree jib up in my locker in like 02/03. I never knew he did the Seth Pistols, though. RIP.
