Description

The Assassin's a killer. It may sound funny but that's the way it is. It's a tough board designed for those who rip, shred and destroy. If we tell you it is the board of choice of Wolle Nyvelt and Taka Nakai it should give you a hint about what it's capable of.

Its core is made of bamboo, cork and fiberglass, an interesting mix offering an unparalleled ratio between lightweight and pop. The hybrid profile brings stability thanks to a flat midsection, responsiveness thanks to cambered underfoot areas, and floatiness and playfulness with rockers through the tips. Top this up with the Eq Rad technology enhancing grip and agility, add rubber reinforcements for a better shock absorbtion, and you get a freestyle gun able to shred any terrain with ease.

 

What our testers say : Best suited for a freestyle-backcountry use, the Assassin is a hugely versatile board and can easily deal with anything you throw at it. It's an excellent choice for riders with an advanced level looking for a powerful freestyle board. The Assassins feels responsive and agile but needs legs to be tamed. MAke sure you got them with you before you go on a mission.

Tips and advice

Size of your board?

The length of your board is extremely important. Several parameters have to be taken into account : Your height, your weight, your level and your program (allmountain-freeride-freestyle). We created a calculator that will tell you what size of board would suit you best, once you've completed these parameters. You can also call us (+33 4 73 26 98 47) to get a personal advice from our experienced team.
The snowboards you'll purchase on our website are all factory waxed and tuned. That means it's ready to hit the slopes. However, that doesn't work forever, and in order to keep your equipment at the top performance, you need to maintain base and edges on a regular basis.
Maintaining your skis is essential to ensure an optimal glide and grip. Frequency of maintenance may vary depending on how often you use your board, or on how damaged it is. We recommend that you wax it every 10 riding days, and at the end of the season. Edges need to be tuned up to 2 times per season if you want to keep a good edge control. However, don't get them overtuned because every tuning takes some of the steel off.

When your base is damaged and shows shallow scratches or rock gouge, it is possible to repair it.

You can get these repairs done by professional ski shop, or if the gouge is only superficial you may repair it yourself. To do so, you will need special tools and materials such as wax, Ptex for repairing bases, edge tuners, etc. You can find them on our website.
