Black Diamond Soft Top

The Black Diamond is DHD's true all-rounder - a genuine one-board quiver designed to handle almost anything you're likely to surf, and it's now available in our Soft Top construction! With extra flotation through the front half for easy paddling and wave entry, it stays forgiving and user-friendly in small, weak surf, while still offering enough performance to handle steeper, better waves when they turn on. It's a board that covers a lot of ground and suits a wide range of surfers and conditions.

How it surfs: The Black Diamond is easy to paddle, quick to get moving, and forgiving underfoot. The extra width and volume up front help generate speed early and glide through weaker sections, while the pulled-in rounded pin tail and refined rear rails let the board sit comfortably in the pocket when waves get steeper. It feels fast off the front foot, smooth through turns, and predictable at speed. Whether it's one-foot slop or cleaner, more powerful surf, the Black Diamond adapts without feeling out of place.

Quiver: This is your do-everything board --- the one you grab when you don't want to think too hard about conditions. If you want a single board that paddles easily, works across a wide wave range, and still lets you surf properly when the waves improve, the Black Diamond earns its spot.
