evo.com | K2 Snowboards > If your riding style can best be described as "buck wild", you need a board that can hang. The K2 Alchemist LTD Snowboard is the pick for fast and furious freeriding with a powerful directional design that keeps you in control no matter what. K2 left no stone unturned, so it's is stacked with premium technology, enough carbon to send you to the moon and back, and a limited edition graphic that pays homage to one of the best in the business: Curtis Ciszek. From cliff drops to face shots, this is the only board you'll need this season. 2 x 4 Inserts S1 Core The smooth-flexing cousin to the A1 core, K2's new S1 core in designed to be damp underfoot and stronger than hell. Constructed from bamboo, aspen, and paulownia, the S1 core lets each wood do what it's best for. Tip-to-tail bamboo stringers add snap, durability, and dampening underfoot, and are balanced out by lightweight paulownia in the midbody, tip, and tail to help reduce swing weight. Underfoot, aspen and bamboo are placed at 30deg angles to increase strength, supercharge edge-to-edge response, and increase pressure distribution along the edge. 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. Triaxial Glass A glass laminate with diagonal layers that adds torsional stiffness for increased stability and improved edge hold. The fibers three layers of fibers are woven at 45deg , 45deg , and 0deg . This makes for a more responsive ride longitudinally and torsionally.
