DARREN HANDLEY

Darren Handley grew up on Australia's famous Gold Coast, a unique location with the largest concentration of world-class waves in the world. The diversity of waves on the Gold Coast has allowed Darren to hone his skills to create the most responsive surfboards in the world.

Many of the DHD team surfers have triumphed on DHD surfboards; these boards became world champions nine times with the two athletes Mick Fanning and Stephanie Gilmore.

Darren Handley is not just a shaper, but rather the complete manufacturer of surfboards. "At almost 50 years old, I still pick up the grinder and work in the mold room, I'm still in it. I'm always striving to build the perfect surfboard, and to achieve that I surround myself with the most skilled workers in the industry this ultimate race to create the perfect board."DH

Despite paving the way for himself, Darren is one of the most influential figures in the world of surfing. When it comes to making surfboards, no one has as much passion as Darren, he has dedicated his life to making his experience available to everyone to advance and achieve the best performance.
