The Assassin was built fusing Salomon's best powder and freestyle shapes to create the ultimate one-board quiver. While staying true to its origin, the Assassin has evolved over the years with a longer nose and tail shape for enhanced performance in deeper snow, while maintaining its superior freestyle abilities in both the park and in the backcountry.
From powder days to park laps and side hits, the Assassin offers superior versatility with an elongated nose and tail for float, and Rock Out Camber for freestyle performance.
