evo.com | K2 Snowboards > 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(TM) 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. Directional Shape Flex Rating 9 (1 Playful - 10 Precise) 2x4 Inserts 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. 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. The K2 Program Snowboard Bindings are the only program worth signing up for. A powerful 9/10 flex, precision response, and K2's new Module(TM) Chassis deliver the support to charge steeps, stomp big landings, and hold an edge when things get rowdy. Get with the program, or spend another season wondering what you're missing. Flex Rating 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) DD1 Ankle Strap dual-density ankle strap offers the best of both worlds, a softer inner material provides a seamless connection to your boot, and more rigid outer material provides with unrivaled response. Injected with a castor-bean based materials. FR1 Highback Injected with a castor-bean based materials, the FR1 is equal parts eco and ergo. Freeride focused, asymmetrically shaped, and a stiffer flex for a more responsive feel. Sugarcane EVA Footbed with Eco- Harshmellow(TM) Pods Optimized thickness helps dampen impact on the fattest and flattest landings, while new 3D texturing not only enhances the fit between boot to binding, but creates a "snow-phobic" effect to reduce snow build up. MODULE(TM) Chassis Featured on all K2's newest bindings, the Module(TM) chassis is composed of a fiberglass-infused nylon and minimizes "dead" board flex zones directly underneath the binding. This allows the rider to feel the flex and response of the entire board length while providingmaximum support, security, comfort, and vibration damping.
