 I ride 20-40 boards a year and this is the only board in a few years that I NEED to own. It's pricy as hell for a standard board but it may be the best freeride board I've ever had the pleasure to strap onto.

First off the K2 alchemist. Let's put it this way. I ride 20-40 boards a year and this is the only board in a few years that I NEED to own. It's pricy as hell for a standard board but it may be the best freeride board I've ever had the pleasure to strap onto

Hi everyone!

Currently I'm riding a GNU T2B, I progressed a lot with freestyle with it, but tbh thats not where my passion is. It was kind of a mistake to purchase it, but it did progress me so I don't regret it too much.

**I'm looking for a board for powder, carving and going high speed on the grooms. I hope this can be achieved on one board..** As I plan on keeping the T2B for now, freestyle is not a priority. Even if I decide to sell the T2B, I think that all of these would be able to do simple kickers and 180s?

**The options I'm currently looking at are:**

1. Bataleon Camel Two 2021
2. Jones Flagship 2021
3. Nitro Squash 2020
4. Libtech Orca 2021 (I think its more expensive, can't check without being in store)

BTW, my bindings are Burton Mission 2020 and boots are Nitro Venture Pro 2020, that I don't intend to replace.

I'm not from the US so my options are more limited, but if you have more recommendations I'll be happy to hear, maybe I will have the option to get it. Ignore budget for now, as prices are very different here and they depend more on who is the importer rather than the board's actual price in the US...

Thanks, and may the winter come back ASAP!!

Powder/Carving/High Speed Board Recommendation

 Carbon fiber bases though are insanely fast. I got this board and instantly it just has they just speed up faster that's the best that way I can put it. This board is fast it carves really good it's amazingly good in powder. Also beyond the spectral braid this board has two carbon fiber towards rods in the tail this makes the tail quite stiff it is a very unique short tail it is meant to hold an edge very very well

 It is a bit of a pain you have to really loosen both of them off and blah blah blah. It's not super simple that was my biggest bugaboo on the binding but all in all people should really not think that the K2 bindings are just a department store. This is a very responsive binding. It has these little bushings too in the base of the binding that you can put different ones in to adjust kind of the flex or in the canting of the base plate

 Rive used to do this with their all their cap timelesses and stuff and it really helped board sales because people could actually see what the board was made of and what they were getting for their bang for their buck. This is so smart because everything in this board not only does the board look absolutely beautiful but you can actually see that these guys aren't messing around it's not just some slap-together sandwich snowboard this is a serious piece of machinery something for people to also know with K2 snowboards is that yes people there's a reputation for K2 boards because they're in sport check that they're somehow cheap or they're a department store board but I want to reiterate this board will slap you in the face and steal your girlfriend like this is a real snowboard it's there's no joke right now they have Pat Moore on the team Sage Cotsenberg they've been doing some really good pushes with marketing this is this board I hate to say but like that this is an orca killer you know this is this is this keeps up with some of the other big big boards out there that are selling really well well this is probably one of the best boards I've ridden in a long time and and I would like to thank Jason Hilton again for really for hooking me up man like this was above and beyond what he needed to do and I actually missed this board because I do enjoy riding it a lot so I just wanted to want to give a really good review of the K2 Alchemist next year's is different only in that really they've changed the nose and tail to a more of an orange color looks awesome and I really got back in these guys I big time so thank you everyone and I hope you enjoyed the season of board reviews that'll be it for me I think and hope to see you next year have a good day bye

K2 Alchemist Snowboard with Lien AT bindings review

 So since this board is that more aggressive, hard-charging board, we wanted to have a majority camber profile here. So that camber is going to give you really good edge hold through variable conditions, a lot of pop, a lot of drive in and out of your turns. And then that rocker out in the tip is going to help with float and powder as well as easy turn initiation. So it's a perfect camber profile for this style of board

 And then getting into the camber profile of this thing, it has our directional camber profile. So that's going to be camber from just inside the front contact point all the way to the tail of the board with a slight early rise in the nose. So since this board is that more aggressive, hard-charging board, we wanted to have a majority camber profile here. So that camber is going to give you really good edge hold through variable conditions, a lot of pop, a lot of drive in and out of your turns

 How's it going? I'm Justin Clark. I'm the Global Design Engineer at Snowboards here at K2 Snowboarding, and today we are talking about the 2023 Alchemist, which is a part of our all-new landscape collection of freeride boards. So the Alchemist is designed to be the most aggressive, hardest-charging board within the whole line, and especially the landscape collection. Really geared towards that rider, looking to push the limits of their riding, ride super fast through chop, chunder, powder, kind of everything in between

 So that's a fiber that's variable angle from tip to tail, and it changes the torsional flex for you. So really makes it super unique. It's kind of in a league of its own as far as tech goes. And then in the tail here, we have our carbon power forks

 K2 claims the Alchemist is designed for steep, steep and resort riding. It's designed for advanced to expert riders, confident, aggressive riding styles. It's a 9 of 10 flex. It is a rocket ship

 It's a 9 of 10 flex. It is a rocket ship. K2 packed all of their best top technology on here, everything from the snow phobic top sheet. You don't get all that snow build up

 The Bambuja Pro Core features bamboo strips from tip to tail. What that does is it gives you a lot of snap, a lot of rebound. It's super eco-friendly because it's renewable. Underneath your foot, you have a 45 degree angle in both directions for better edge pressure

 Hey guys, this is Tom at K2 Snowboarding and we're going to talk about the all-new Alchemist. The Alchemist is a premium freeride board that's new to the line for 2021. $699 US, this board features a snow-fubic topsheet. This is a brushed nylon material that sheds snow for those deeper days

First Look at K2 Alchemist Snowboard for winter 2020/2021

 Or you can just do mellow setup turns or medium mellow carves if you want to where you're swooping from one side of the trail back to the other. This is a deck for hauling ass and just leaving trenches, in my opinion. Bring your A-game because you won't be disappointed. Who's this board for? The hard charging resort ripper

 It doesn't. It actually, while being stiffer, still has flex where it counts. Now with that said, it's a full directional flex, meaning softer nose that progressively stiffens back up through to the tail. With a little bit of torsional flex, it's not a crazy amount, it's just the right balance for letting you do some ankle steering and to twist this board when you need to

 This is going to give you that load, pop, snap, and drive of traditional camber, but you're going to have that rocker in the nose for ease of entry, in and out of turns, as well as more optimal powder float. This board is available in 157, 160, 163, 159 wide, 164 wide. I rode this board at Rappahoe Basin on a sunny bluebird day, there was warmer temps, you had hero snow, soft creamy groomers, chunder, ice, hot pow, off the runs, and I rode it with my Rome Black Label bindings and my K2 Thraxis boots. First and foremost, I want to address the whole belief that this board is some kind of death plank that's overly stiff, it has no flex

 There's a lot of power in the camber on this board, so when you load it up, it wants to rebound. It wants to react. This is a board that wants to get you into the air off anything you're doing, so if you put a little bit of effort into it, you're still going to get a lot out of it. You put a lot in, you're going to get double that amount back

Lib Tech Stump Ape Snowboard · 2023 · 157W cm

Tactics Boardshop

 If you have big feet, I love riding my Lib Tech Stump Ape in the trees, and it is amazing on pow days.

So my only board has been a Arbor Westmark camber 156. I’m 5’10” 215lbs. Board has been a great all mountain board. I’ve found I spend most my days in the trees looking for powder, and this board isn’t great for that. Looking to add either a Salomon Dancehaul or a Spring Break Slush Slasher as a powder/trees board that is also decent for doing some big carves on groomers. It won’t be for riding in the park, as I have the westmark. but maybe some side hits. Any advice?

I mainly ride in California, some smaller resorts, Bear and mammoth. But I also spend a week each season in Colorado (steamboat) or around Salt Lake Utah.

2nd board help

 The problem is, however, I'm struggling to decide what bindings to buy. I plan on purchasing some Burton boots in size 14 or 15, but almost all bindings just come in "large" and say they are for 10.5+ sizes.

 What that's going to mean is this board is going to have a lot of float and powder and be very maneuverable, so if you're a bigger guy who wants a small board to maneuver tight tree runs and just slash around in the powder, this is definitely going to be a board you're going to want to check out. Really cool throwback textured top sheet on this board and also a killer graphic on the bottom as well. The Stump Ape features a TNT base, which is Teflon and titanium infused. It's a Lib Tech favorite for its durability and it doesn't need to be waxed nearly as much as a traditional centered base, so you're kind of getting the best of both worlds with the TNT base on this board
