The Curated Take

The Assassin is possibly the industry's most underrated snowboard. True all mountain domination that still allows for performance is deep snow and when jumping. The balance that this board has in that regard is unmatched. For the Salomon line its right between the Huck Knife and the Sick Stick, which for many riders is the exact rider profile of someone who rips the mountain but still wants to be able to jump, jib (with speed) and carve at a high level.
