Hey folks I found one available cheap and was thinkin about making a purchase. I currently ride the Origin Wedington 138 and previously rode a Hyperlite 2000 Belmont 134, I've riden trips and a few other LF boards, how does this thing compare? Would you recomend it?

The Assassin has great four fin design that really locks in on edge. I ride the 134 w/ 1.0 inch fins. It is a really fast board that gets great pop and has soft landings. Some people have misconceptions about the shape (the nub) but it really lenghtens the channel out. It is a real fun board. Hey Greg Nelson designed it! All of his boards ride great. If you found a deal, get it, you won't be dissapointed. If you are bummed after you get it email me casey@tritonsports.com and I'll take care of you.

I wouldn't get the Belmont over the Assassin. It's a good board, but the Belmont pop is more out than up.

The assassin definatly looks cool! I should try one out.

This may be dumb but, Double Up and Blindside are the same parent company right? Websites match each other!
