K2 skis: Alchemist Men's Snowboard 157cm

Product Details

The Alchemist board from K2 is a hard-charging, directional freeride board for the skilled rider. Targeted to please the advanced-to- expert level snowboarder, it is packed with advanced functional technology, including K2's SpaceGlass™ tip insert and patented Spectral Braid technology.
SpaceGlass™ is a pre-cured fiberglass insert that helps reduce weight, minimize chatter, and increase edge pressure. Spectral Braid allows us to adjust tip-to-tail stiffness independently from the torsional stiffness, creating a stiffer snowboard in the tip and tail to promote edge hold, while keeping it more relaxed between the feet for easy turn initiation.
Recess3D technology in the nose removes excess material from the board, adds visual depth to the top sheet and reduces chatter – all without sacrificing strength.

A thirty-five-year history, collaborative rider input, and premium technology culminate in delivering the most aggressive and precision-crafted snowboard we’ve ever made. The Alchemist holds its ground as the most premium offering on freeride snowboarding today.

Features:

• RECESS 3D: Removing excess material from the board in low stress zones, reducing swingweight, adding visual depth to the top sheet and reducing chatter – all without sacrificing strength.
• WAX INFUSED SINTERED 4001 Base - Built using the hardest and fastest Sintered base material on the market to hold wax longer than other bases.
• S1 CORE: designed to be damp underfoot and stronger than hell. Constructed from Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia, the S1 Core let’s each wood do what it’s best for. Built for snap, durability, and damping underfoot with reduced swingweight, increased strength,edge-to-edge response, and pressure distribution .
• SPECTRAL BRAID: Integrated carbon weave running the length of the board and at 90degree angles in the tip and tail, for torsional and responsiveness and a more relaxed angle between the inserts for handling and maneuverability.
• SPACEGLASS™: Aerospace grade precure fiberglass core insert used to provide unmatched structural performance at reduced weight, increasing edge hold along contact points, reducing chatter, and providing unequaled durability.
• CARBON POWER FORK™: A pre-cambered carbon inlay in the tail to give the board energy in and out of turns and adds extra pop for takeoffs and landings.
• SNO-PHOBIC TOP SHEET: to sheer off unwanted snow build-up, keeping your snowboard light and nimble.
