A 20+ year rider (6'2", 220 lb) picked up a 2023/24 K2 Alchemist 163 as their first directional board after a four-year break and absolutely loves it: amazing and incredibly stable on groomers, natural and secure, like they'd ridden it forever.

Rides a 2023/24 K2 Alchemist 160 at 175 lb and calls it their favorite board; paired with their Excavator it made them a huge K2 fan.
Got the 2024 K2 Alchemist on sale and, after a few days, finds it super solid; unexpected death cookies at speed barely register.
