The Diamana has won broad praise from tour players and the advanced recreational golfer looking for and expecting more from a shaft.

Diamana Blue Board shaft is probably the most popular and scrutinized of the three. The Blue Board is a low torque, stiff tip shaft that offers a very balanced feel for a variety of shots. A very stable mid-section offers a less kick to enhance balance and responsiveness. The penetrating ball flight is well suited for the advanced player with plenty of swing speed, looking for a combination of balance, feel and versatility.

Fantastic shaft! A consistent shaft that explodes off the tee!
Can’t go back to a normal shaft. This is as good as it gets. It is well worth the price. I bought a used Tour Sasquatch driver with the blue board shaft. The ball explodes and stays in the air like it’s floating. The shaft is what makes a club. No other comment. Awesome!!!
Mitsubishi White board maybe the best shaft ever made, i think it is.
Thank you mitsubishi
use a blueboard in mizuno 600. love it. looking to put a whiteboard in a used mizuno 630
topper, what kind of game you have, trying to determine if im good enough for the white board. not the longest hitter in my group, but i play with guys that are legit 300 yd drivers. i know everyone says that, but play with some young college players often
