Azhar Abdrakhmanova tested this product
It's pretty cool but also a bit quirky. They've tweaked the side cut - it's kind of flat and slightly weird, but it does a solid job in hard snow. It's not the ultimate choice for icy conditions, but it handles them better than you might expect. The cork section transitions to this black area, and the board doesn't rock... Read more

John Yeo owns this product
This board is a great pick for the intermediate to advanced rider looking for something reliable to ride on any given day. The Assassin is a versatile board that you can take pretty much anywhere on the resort.
It runs a medium flex, but some additional features make it stand out. The two built-in carbon fiber forks in the tip and... Read more
Ideal for
- Super versatile. Great one board quiver that can be taken from the park to the bowls.
- Turns on a dime and is adaptable enough to make tight turns through trees or lay deep trenches.
- Can take a beating. Whether in the park or through the early season rock fields, the base holds up through it all.
Not ideal for
- Not the most powder friendly. Floats well enough, but knee deep snow is not the Assassin's friend.
- Can start to get chattery when bombing at higher speeds (50+ mph)

Jonny S. owns this product
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...

LEGEND OF A SNOWBOARD
Posted on Aug 29, 2023I recently had the pleasure of riding the Assassin snowboard and I have to say, it's truly an amazing board. I've been using it for the entire season and I have yet to encounter any issues with its performance. One of the standout features of the Assassin is its forgiving flex. It felt great under my boots and provided the perfect amount of responsiveness while still being comfortable to ride on. I was able to easily navigate through different types of terrain and feel confident in my abilities on the board. Overall, I would highly recommend the Assassin to anyone looking for a reliable, high-performance snowboard. It's an absolute pleasure to ride and I can't imagine hitting the slopes without it. If you're in the market for a new snowboard, definitely give the Assassin a try. You won't be disappointed!

Erik was great!
5 /5
Erik was very helpful in assisting me to pick out my first pair of skis and ski bindings! I am an intermediate-level skier but have always used rental skis, so when looking to buy my own, I didn't have much of a knowledge-base. Erik was very helpful in answering my questions and with narrowing down which skis would be a good fit for me, taking into consideration my height/weight, skill level, skiing strengths and weaknesses, and price range. Thank you very much, Erik!

This was my first time buying snow sport gear of any kind. Tyler used the information I gave him to give me some really great choices and get me all set up with a board, bindings, and a helmet. He was very responsive to my questions and had recommendations for sizes and settings that I would not have been able to figure out on my own. He was great!

Brandon Nailed My Snowboard Setup!

Brandon was awesome! He helped me choose the perfect snowboard gear, a Burton Cartographer with boots and bindings. He made sure everything fit perfectly and even scored me a great deal. Super pumped with my setup, the setup worked perfect for Midwest and East coast riding! Thanks, Brandon!

Tyler was super helpful!
5 /5
Tyler made great recommendations and really took the time to understand where my skill level is at and where I intend to ski. Ultimately, I was uncomfortable making the investment without trying the skis first, so I ended up buying a pair that I had rented several times and really liked. I had so many questions and came very close to purchasing skis a few months ago but now I that I have nearly finished this season I have a better idea of what I was looking for!

Nico helped me decide what length Atomic Mavens to get and bindings. He helped me decide that these skis will work on East Coast ice and Jackson Hole powder. I wish Curated was sticking around because it's such a great service. My cousin bought skis bindings and boots last year with curated and is stoked.

Great help.

Tyler helped to reassure me on the board I have been eying, while also suggesting the best options for boots and bindings; he never tried to push the most expensive option, but rather gave me a number of choices to consider for myself (and in fact, recommended a cheaper boot option than the one I went with!). He was a great help and I feel confident that he helped me make a solid purchase.

Additional Board
5 /5
I was looking at updating my board and was just looking around. After a quick chat with John to narrow down which board to pick, he made it easier than going into a store. He helped out with an additional discount that no other website could beat. Too hard to pass up a great deal, I bought the board and bindings. Cheers to debuting it before the season ends!

She knew exactly what I was looking for...
5 /5
I already knew what skis I was trying to find, based on the conditions I wanted to ski and also based on my skill level. Not only did she recommend the exact skis that I had been looking for, but she also recommended a better set of bindings than the ones I had previously thought were a good fit. I love that she's a neighbor over in VT while I'm in NH, so she knows East Coast (Ice Coast) skiing like I do. I'm so excited for the deal I just landed on brand new 2025 skis, and I have Shannon to thank for helping me narrow down the perfect fit. I'm just so sad to hear this amazing company is closing its doors, but while the deals are good and before they go, I will be recommending them to everyone I know! Thanks again, Shannon! Happy skiing!

5 /5
Noah helped me tremendously. I kind of knew what I wanted but by asking the right questions, he helped point me in the best direction for my changing skill level and age and kind of terrain I'd be skiing more since moving to a different state. He took everything into account. He gave me choices for each item I wanted---skis, bindings, poles---and put together a perfect curation! I'm super stoked to be able to take advantage of the discounts of course, but I never would've been able to do that or even find such great equipment without Noah's help!
