DHD Sandman Surfboard

Our goal for the sandman project was to develop a board that would make surfing easier for the ‘normal’ person, but also have some versatility to be used as a semi step-up board for the more regular surfer.

Darren designed the Sandman with the wide point moved forward 2 inches and the deck rolled into a sleek medium low rail.

This design provides easy paddling without losing the signature DHD performance. The rounded pin tail allows smooth rail to rail surfing, the slight single to double concave with a flat entry rocker generates the speed that you are looking for.

About DHD Surfboards:

Darren Handley grew up on Australia’s wave rich Gold Coast, a unique place in the World with regards to the high concentration of world famous waves and the talent the coast continually produces. It is the Gold Coast’s variety of waves that has allowed Darren to hone his skills for creating the most responsive boards in the world.

Regarded as one of the world’s best shapers the writing is on the wall in terms of DH’s achievements, including 3X ASP World Champion Mick Fanning and 7X ASP Women’s World Champion Stephanie Gilmore.

DH is not simply a shaper, but rather the complete surfboard manufacturer. At nearly 50 years old, I’m still picking up the sander and working in the glass room, I’m hands on. It’s all about the perfect surfboard, and surrounding yourself with the most skilled workers in the industry, to create that ultimate ride. – DH

Although Darren has paved much of the way for himself, he is heavily influenced by his team riders and those closest to him in the surfing community. No one has passion like DH, and when it comes to making surfboards he has devoted his life to giving everyone the ultimate experience when they ride a DHD board.

DH has dedicated his life to creating the ultimate high performance surfboard, and as an industry leader he continues to set standards for quality and performance.
