About the K2 Alchemist

The North Star in the K2 Snowboarding snowboard offering, and the marquee of the Landscape Collection, the Alchemist is a hard-charging, directional freeride board for a skilled rider.

Targeted to please the advanced to expert-level snowboarder, the stiff and responsive K2 Alchemist is packed with functional technology. This snowboard features two unique technologies from the K2 camp; the SpaceGlass™ tip insert and the patented Spectral Braid. SpaceGlass™ is a pre-cured fibreglass insert that helps reduce weight, reduce chatter, and increase edge pressure. Spectral Braid is a technology that allows us to adjust tip-to-tail stiffness independently from the torsional stiffness. This creates a torsionally stiffer snowboard in the tip and tail to promote edge hold while keeping it more relaxed between the feet to allow for easy turn initiation.

New for 2022-2023, K2 have added special Recess3D technology to the nose of the Alchemist. This technology removes material from the board, adding a visual depth to the top sheet while helping to reduce weight and chatter without sacrificing strength.

A combination of rider input, premium technology, and 35 years of building snowboards culminate in showcasing the most aggressive and precision-crafted snowboard K2 have ever made. The Alchemist snowboard from K2 stands alone as the most premium offering in freeride snowboarding today.

Features Include:
S1 Core Construction: Made from three renewable species of timber - Bamboo, Aspen & Paulownia. Aspen & Bamboo work together to highlight snap & response & Bamboo-dominant underfoot section at 30° increases strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response & increase the pressure distribution along the edge
Spectral Braid: Integrated carbon weave running the length of the board, intersecting at 90º angles in tip & tail for adding torsional rigidity, responsiveness & more relaxed angle between inserts for handling
Spaceglass™: Pre-cured fibreglass insert placed in the board's tip to reduce swing weight & add durability & manoeuvrability
Recess 3D: Reduced number of materials in low-stress zones to minimize the swing weight of your snowboard while also reducing chatter in the tip and tail - all without sacrificing strength
Carbon Power Fork™: A pre-cambered carbon inlay in the tail gives the board energy in & out of turns & adds extra pop for takeoffs & landings
Wax Infused Sintered 4001 Base: Built using the hardest & fastest Sintered base material on the market from Crown - holds wax longer than other Sintered bases for a smoother glide, longer
Sno-Phobic Top Sheet: This top sheet material sheds unwanted snow build-up, keeping your snowboard light & nimble
2 X 4 Insert Binding Mounting: 2x4 Insert packs allow for secure binding mounting while optimizing stance-width options. Time-tested, secure & stable
