Burton Custom Flying V vs Salomon Assassin

How they compare

Both target all mountain and freeride terrain, while the Salomon Assassin leans more freestyle. They share a directional twin shape — mostly twin with a slight directional bias—versatile for all-mountain and some switch. Both feature roc_cam_roc_cam_roc profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. The Salomon Assassin is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. At $599.95 vs $669.95 MSRP, the Salomon Assassin is the more budget-friendly option.
