Sandman

Name: Sandman
Brand: DHD

Owners Rating:

The Sandman is crafted to make surfing easier for the average surfer while offering versatility as a semi step-up board for more experienced riders. Designed for beginner to intermediate surfers, it performs well in wave sizes ranging from 2 to 6 feet and beyond, handling all conditions with ease. The board features a flat entry rocker transitioning to a slight tail lift, and a slight single to double concave for smooth, speedy rides. With a thruster fin setup, standard glassing (4 x 4 x 4), and a round tail, the Sandman ensures easy paddling and smooth rail-to-rail transitions. The wide point is moved forward by 2 inches, enhancing stability and performance. Meta Description
