GolfWRX’s Resident Club Junkie, Brian Knudson, was naturally excited to get his hands on Mitsubishi’s new Diamana WB shaft.
In this video, BK gives you a brief overview of the new WB, builds up a driver, and takes it to the course for some testing.
With the rebirth of the iconic Whiteboard profile, Mitsubishi didn’t just re-issue a classic, but rather infused all the company’s latest tech into a new shaft, paying homage to the original with its quintessentially Hawaiian-inspired stylings. A summary of that impressive roster of technology, below.
- 80-ton Dialead pitch fiber: Positioned in the handle, Dialead is designed to deliver greater ball speed via better energy transfer.
- Aerospace-grade MR70 carbon fiber adds additional strength, and 46-ton fiber in angle plies in the tip section reduce torque for tighter shot dispersion.
- Consistent Feel Design: Engineers target minimal variance across shafts (butt OD, weight, and balance point) to make the fitting process easier.
- Xlink Tech Resin System: Engineers continue to reduce resin content and increase carbon fiber volume for greater feel without sacrificing strength and durability.

There is exactly one thing that is the most detrimental problem with driver accuracy. It’s adrenaline.
When you step up to smash a ball, the natural concept of hitting further is your body winds up just a little more. More power, it thinks. That’s generally right, but when your backswing gets too long, it is very unlikely you will unwind and hit the ball in the way you wanted to.
How can you tell? It’s easy. If the rest of your body causes you to move your lead cheek – yes, cheek on your face – you’re toast. This is because you can control the path of the club until you reset your eyes and change your perspective. As soon as you reestablish a location for your eyes, your body automagically goes into an emergency mode of “just make contact/don’t fail”. When you do, you are at the mercy of how you’ve set up, and the balance you’ve put yourself into by overextending.
This is why pros try to stay limber and flexible. If they do, that gives them more backswing without changing their body orientation and balance! It is why we can all usually be very successful with 80% power shots; we don’t change the intended balance and position on transition into downswing.
I hope this helps someone. Cheers.

I found this fascinating to think about changing ball position and feet position rather than changing my swing. Gonna try it next time out!! Thnx!!!

No way his club head speed is 110 mph. He has no shoulder tune and thus no torque to produce that kind of speed.

Grip down one inch on driver. Play to strength, fade or draw. Takeaway low and slow.
