Salomon Assassin Pro vs Salomon Bellevue Split

How they compare

Both target freeride terrain, while the Salomon Assassin Pro leans more all mountain/freestyle. The Salomon Assassin Pro uses a directional twin shape while the Salomon Bellevue Split is directional. The Salomon Assassin Pro has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Salomon Bellevue Split uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Salomon Assassin Pro is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. At $699.95 vs $999.95 MSRP, the Salomon Assassin Pro is the more budget-friendly option.
