DHD Surfboards - What's Epoxicore all about?

January 24, 2017

Over thirty years of designing and shaping DHD surfboards has led Darren Handley to create a board that brings together the positive attributes of both traditional fibreglass and epoxy construction. The development team embraced the project as we explored new technology, design and manufacturing techniques.

Superior Weight Distribution

With superior weight distribution designed to eliminate speed “chatter”, improve rail performance and introduce more flex to the bottom of half of the board.

the unique thing is you still have the forward momentum of a regular board but with the core making it ideal for someone who wants to ride an epoxy

— Mick Fanning

Control Flex

The control flex contained in the bottom half of the board is the most exciting feature, almost like a compressed spring releasing its energy into the surfer, giving you the confidence to take your surfing to the next level.

This board is a Game changer!

Rail Performance

The weighted rails allow you to bury the rail and provides the necessary control to complete desired manoeuvres.

It makes me want to surf!
