Assassin - Men's Freestyle Snowboard

Push the limits of your playground with the Salomon Assassin snowboard, an all-mountain men's board designed for riders who want as much precision on groomers as they do freestyle energy. Versatile and responsive, it combines the qualities of a freestyle snowboard with the performance needed to explore powder and natural terrain.

Thanks to its Directional Twin shape, the Salomon Assassin retains a geometry suited to tricks and riding switch, while benefiting from a directional flex and a slightly set-back stance. Its longer nose and tail improve float in deep snow without compromising its playful feel in the snowpark.

Its Rock Out Camber profile combines a flat section between the bindings for stability, camber underfoot for responsiveness, and rocker at the tips for easier presses. This combination offers a balance of grip, forgiveness, and precision, making it especially great for mixing up your riding style throughout the day.

The construction features a Popster core with strategically shaped thicknesses to optimize energy transfer and deliver dynamic pop. Combined with Basalt Booster reinforcements, it makes the board responsive and fun to ride, whether you're popping off or changing direction.

The Quadralizer sidecut improves pressure distribution on the edges for powerful turns and quick transitions. Under the board, the sintered EG base delivers fast glide and excellent wax retention, while Royal Rubber Rails help absorb vibrations.

With its medium flex and versatile construction, the Salomon Assassin helps intermediate to advanced snowboarders transition naturally from carving to jumps, from the park to powder.
