K2 Alchemist 160Wcm 2027

• Shape – Directional Freeride
  A purpose-built directional shape prioritising stability, edge control, and drive at speed. A longer nose improves float and composure in variable snow, while the powerful tail delivers powerful edge engagement when things get steep and firm.
• Profile – Directional Camber
  Traditional camber through the body of the board for maximum edge hold and precision, with subtle early rise in the nose to reduce hookiness and add float when the snow gets three-dimensional.

• Flex – 9/10 (Very Stiff)
  K2’s stiffest freeride flex, built to stay calm under heavy load and hold a line at high speed. Best suited to advanced riders who want uncompromising stability and edge security.

Tech Features

• SpaceGlass™
  USA-made aerospace composite used in place of traditional fiberglass to increase strength while reducing weight and vibration. Eliminates chatter at speed and lowers swing weight without sacrificing power.
• Recess3D
  Precision CNC-machined core profiling that removes material in low-stress zones. Reduces overall weight while increasing fiberglass stiffness through three-dimensional shaping.
• S1 Pro Core
  K2’s most advanced core construction, built on the S1 platform and refined with strategically placed paulownia and bamboo to maximise strength while reducing unnecessary mass. Paulownia is used to lower swing weight in the tip and tail, while higher bamboo content through the body of the board increases durability, snap, and damping.
• Spectral Braid™
  Patented fiber reinforcement that allows torsional flex and longitudinal flex to be tuned independently. Tip and tail remain torsionally stiff for stability, while the area between the bindings stays more compliant for control and maneuverability.
• HyperWeave™ Carbon
  K2’s all-new carbon fiber biax weave replaces the bottom layer of fiberglass. Delivers a significant increase in pop and torsional stiffness while reducing weight compared to traditional fiberglass laminates.
• Triax Glass
  Three-axis fiberglass laminate that improves torsional rigidity and response, contributing to the Alchemist’s precise edge control and powerful feel under load.
• SpaceGlass™ Tip Insert
  Targeted SpaceGlass reinforcement in the tip to further reduce swing weight and damp vibration without softening the nose.
• BioResin
  Plant-based epoxy resin used throughout the construction to reduce petroleum content while maintaining strength and durability.
• Wax Infused Sintered 4001 Base
  High-density sintered base material infused with wax for exceptional speed, durability, and long-lasting glide in all snow conditions.
• Stone Ground Base
  Factory stone grind structure for consistent glide and improved wax absorption straight out of the wrapper.
• 2×4 Inserts
  Standard 2×4 insert pattern for wide stance adjustability and compatibility with all major binding systems.
