Assassin Snowboard 2020

TERRAIN: All Mountain, Park & Freestyle, Freeride / Powder

FLEX: Medium

SHAPE: Directional Twin

PROFILE: Rock Out Camber

Blending all three profiles for one FUN freestyle ride! The Rock Out Camber has you standing on a flat platform for ultimate stability. Outside your bindings is the camber section that provides control and amazing lift on your ollies. Then you have rocker under the contact points for the forgiveness and just enough loosening to make the most of any hit, jump or feature you want to play on. This profile is an in-resort allrounder if ever there was one.

I rode The Assassin which has this profile and I had a hard time giving it up during the demo because I was able to get insane edge hold and really great height on my jumps.

SIDECUT: Quadralizer

The amazing blend of straight and curved edges is the Quadralizer! Lengthening the amount of edge in contact with the snow, you ride with superior confidence and control.

CORE TYPE: Aspen SLCT

Hand selected from FSC Certified sources, this Aspen core is super light and dependable.

CONSTRUCTION:

ABC Green Roll (Advanced Bamboo Construction)

Using natural materials is always better. Utilising Bamboo, Basalt and Cork means there is way less plastic!

Popster Eco Booster

Making the board thicker and thinner is specific places creates extra strength and extra flex in just the right spots. What do you get?? Extra ollie power, smoother edge to edge transitions and more freestyle fun! This gets beefed up with carbon stringers laid in a V centred on your bindings and reaching out to the contact points. Then crank it up some more with bamboo stringers running the length of the board for max durability and some of the snappiest snap there is!

BA MD

The fiberglass is medium density to keep the board light and extra lively!

Freestyle Edge Bevel

We’ve taken the edge off! De-tuned from the get-go for catch-free fun.

Medium Stone Finish

Put some texture on your base! Like the grooves in your tyres, the texture helps to channel water away, smoothing and speeding up the glide!

Royal Cork Rails

Cork built right in! Great for dampening chatter and keeping the jarring to a minimum on landings, and better for the environment, too!

BASE MATERIAL: Sintered EG

A smooth sintered base for superior glide, beefed up with an Electra Finish for amazing glide. Add in the Gallium and the durability and strength is something to behold!
