Earlier this week, Mitsubishi announced the return of its iconic Whiteboard profile with the new Diamana WB shaft.
In our launch story, we offered a rundown of the key technology in the new WB — 80-ton Dialead pitch fiber, Aerospace-grade MR70 carbon fiber, Consistent Feel Design, and the Xlink Tech Resin System. To go deeper, however, we enlisted our Resident Club Junkie and bona fide shaft nut, Brian Knudson, to track down someone from Mitsubishi at the PGA Show. Fortunately, Mitsubishi’s Director of Global Aftermarket Sales, Jonathan Alongi, was on hand to answer all of BK’s questions.
Check out their discussion about the new WB, as well as the 20th anniversary of the original design, in the video above — time stamps of key points below, including a definitive answer as to how the surfboard graphic ended up on the original Whiteboard in 2004!
- :40 – Mitsubishi Japan expands to the U.S. in 2004
- :50 – “The shaft that set the standard”
- 1:12 – “The ‘board is back”
- 1:45 – WB or Whiteboard? Or both?
- 1:55 – The first iteration of the sixth generation of Diamana
- 2:10 – Incorporating key technology from a 20-year journey
- 3:10 – Modifying the tip section for more ball speed
- 3:50 – Delivering ball speed in a low-launch, low-spin shaft
- 4:20 – Drilling down on the shaft profile compared to the original Whiteboard
- 5:00 – The most impressive element of the new WB
- 5:30 – Butt, mid, tip specifications
- 6:00 – WB’s iconic graphics and the Diamana legacy — flowers, surfboard, numbering system
- 8:15 – An abundance of available weights and flexes
- 8:55 – More players going lightweight

Thank you Shawn. I enjoy your drills and the way you break everything down in an easy to understand format.

In addition to being the most annoying person on this website, Shawn Clement looks like he couldn’t break 90 in a tournament. It’s almost impossible to get through one of his videos.

I’m sure if you saw Jim Furyk (or Ray Floyd, or Corey Pavin, etc.) swing without knowing who he was, you’d probably say they wouldnt break 90 in a tournament either. Yes his swing is stylistically different, but consistent impact is the only thing that matters.
Shawn’s swing, teaching style and tone of voice (which he can’t change) may be different, but if you look at the content of what he’s teaching, it’s all good stuff. That drill he just shared (from one of the top golfers in the world) is FANTASTIC at getting you to feel what it’s like to keep your arms and trunk moving in sync. I just did it, and it works. Everyone has to find an instructor they resonate with, but if Shawn’s not your cup of tea, why do you feel the need to insult him? So many trolls on WRX…
