K2 Snowboards
Alchemist 26-27
The K2 Alchemist Snowboard makes steep lines look inviting and cliff drops seem like reasonable decisions. A powerful 9/10 flex and premium technology like the S1 Pro Core, Spectral Braid, SpaceGlass™ Tip Insert, and Recess3D deliver incredible precision, stability, and float without giving up the freedom to send natural features or charge hardpack with confidence. For riders who expect one board to dominate powder, big terrain, and everything in between, the Alchemist is pure mountain science.
Product Details
Rocker Type:
Directional Camber Profile: The most responsive camber profile in the line features camber running from in front of the front foot to the tail of the board with slight early rise in the nose. This gives the rider the most precision and control possible in any terrain while still floating effortlessly in the deep stuff.
Flex:
Flex Rating: 9 (1 Playful - 10 Precise)
Shape:
Directional Shape
Recess 3D: A 3D shaping process that removes material from low-stress zones in the nose to reduce swing weight and chatter while maintaining strength and adding torsional rigidity through the molded geometry.
Core:
S1 Pro Core: K2's premium wood core blends bamboo, aspen, and paulownia with strategically angled bamboo and aspen underfoot to maximize snap, edge-to-edge response, damping, durability, and pressure distribution, while lightweight paulownia reduces swing weight. It's essentially an upgraded version of the S1 Core, tuned for higher-performance freeride boards.
Laminates:
Triax Glass: A triaxial fiberglass laminate with fibers woven at 45°/45°/0° that increases torsional stiffness for stronger edge hold, greater stability, and a more responsive ride.
SpaceGlass™ Tip Insert: An aerospace-grade, pre-cured fiberglass insert in the tip that reduces weight and chatter while increasing edge pressure for better stability and more precise control.
HyperWeave™: A lightweight, high-strength woven reinforcement that enhances power transfer and durability while reducing excess weight for a more responsive ride.
Spectral Braid™: K2's patented variable-angle carbon reinforcement that independently tunes longitudinal flex and torsional stiffness for a board that's powerful, precise, and easy to control.
BioResin: A plant-based epoxy resin that replaces a portion of traditional petroleum-based resin, reducing environmental impact while maintaining the strength, durability, and performance required in a high-end snowboard construction.
Base:
Wax Infused Sintered 4001 Base: Built using the hardest and fasted sintered base material on the market, the Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 Base holds wax longer than other sintered bases for smoother, longer lasting glide.
Stone Ground Base: A precision stone-ground finish creates a microstructure that holds wax more effectively, improves glide, and keeps the board running fast in a wide range of snow conditions.
Topsheet:
SnoPhobic™ Topsheet: Helps eliminate snow build up while touring up and riding down.
Binding Compatibility:
2x4 Inserts
