Telos Snowboards Deros Snowboard Black, 163cm

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:“On storm days I set my stance a touch back and just surf—DEROS planes fast, stays nimble in trees, and still pops off every sidehit. Setback camber grips on scraped runouts, and the swallowtail keeps the tail loose without washing out. It’s what I grab when it’s deep but I still want to spin and play.”Who It’s ForIntermediate to Advanced Riders with a Freestyle Streak:Pow-chasers who love a surfy feel but still want real pop and edge hold. Ideal for riders who lap trees, hunt sidehits, and want a directional board that floats effortlessly yet won’t feel clumsy when you cruise groomers back to the lift. What It’s ForSurf-Style Powder Riding with All-Mountain Agility:From snorkel mornings to tracked afternoon bowls, DEROS is tuned for quick direction changes, smooth planing, and confident carving when the storm tapers. A setback camber profile provides bite on firm sections while the long nose and swallowtail keep things loose and flowy in soft snow. Why We Like ItSurfy Float, Real Edge Hold, and Playful Pop Together:The poplar/paulownia core and tip-to-tail carbon stringers give DEROS spring without harshness, while polyurethane sidewalls and a triax layup keep chatter in check. Directional swallowtail shaping makes deep days intuitive, yet the board still tracks cleanly and carves predictably on groomers.
