The new Alchemist from K2 is the ultimate when it comes to freeride boards. The K2 team has tested and tested, improved and tested some more – and the result is something to be proud of. Here, the very best materials and technologies have been combined in a magic pot and brewed into a board that sets new standards in freeriding. 

Riding style
If snowboarding means powder to you, then the Alchemist is your magic wand. It also works incredibly well on steep slopes, hard runs and far from the resort.  

Shape
The directional shape ensures float for trips out into the powder, offers stability and control and guarantees pop. The taper means the nose is wider than the tail and promotes smooth turn entry and exit, stability at speed and enhanced deep snow float. The larger volume in the front area allows you to make effortless turns in deep and soft snow and increases the float enormously.

Profile
The Alchemist comes with a Directional Camber Baseline™. The preload ensures proper ollie pop and powerful turns. The Tweakened™ rocker brings a minimal rocker into play at the very end of the tip and tail, which keeps the Alchemist playful and provides more float in powder.

Flex
A stiffer flex guarantees full control in all conditions
 
Construction
The Bambooyah™ Pro Core offers best performance, is extremely durable and made from renewable materials. Triax Glass provides torsional rigidity and unparalleled edge hold. SpaceGlass™ inserts increase edge hold along the contact points, providing smoother running and unmatched durability. Spectral Braid™ is unique. The special reinforcement provides even more control and stability. The new Carbon Power Forks™ ensure the best energy transfer and snap. The high-quality construction is rounded off with the Carbon Infused 5500 Sintered Base, the lightest and best base in the K2 range.
