Alchemist Snowboard - 2023/2024

A hard-charging, directional freeride board for skilled riders, the K2 Alchemist snowboard is packed with functional technology to deliver an aggressive ride on whatever terrain you choose to ride.

Features

• Smooth-flexing S1 Core is designed to be damp underfoot and very strong; constructed from bamboo, aspen and paulownia
• Tip-to-tail bamboo stringers add snap, durability and damping underfoot and are balanced out by lightweight paulownia in the mid body, tip and tail to help reduce swing weight
• Underfoot, aspen and bamboo are placed at 30° angles to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response and increase the pressure distribution along the edge
• SpaceGlass™ is a precured fiberglass core insert that helps reduce weight, minimize chatter and increase edge pressure
• Spectral Braid is a first-of-its-kind variable angle reinforcement that allows for precision-tuned torsion and flex by altering fiber orientation along the length of the board
• Spectral Braid makes K2 snowboards feel lively, energetic and remarkably composed
• Recess3D technology in the nose removes excess material from the board, adds visual depth to the topsheet and reduces chatter, all without sacrificing strength
• Carbon Power Fork™—a pre-cambered carbon inlay in the tail of the snowboard—gives the board energy in and out of turns and adds extra pop for takeoffs and landings
• Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 base is built using the hardest and fastest sintered base material on the market
• Base holds wax longer than other sintered bases for a smoother glide, longer
• Snowboard deck and base colors may vary from online photo
• Some manufacturers provide recommended rider weights as a general guideline. Additional factors can affect which size will best suit your needs. If you have questions regarding snowboard sizing, please visit a sales specialist at your local REI or contact us at 1-800-426-4840.
