A Duel Board, known as a D-Board (D・ボード Dī Bōdo)[1] in the Japanese version, is a type of hoverboard introduced in the Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS anime. It is designed for Speed Duels inside LINK VRAINS. When a Duel is about to begin within the Data Storm, the Duel Boards will appear from within the wind for the Duelists to jump onto. The Duel Boards can also be used as a form of transportation inside LINK VRAINS when Data Storm winds are present,[2] and will disappear as necessary when their owner no longer has the intent of riding the Data Storm winds.[3]

The Knights of Hanoi use Duel Boards that are longer and narrower than other models, with three gems placed towards the front, a semicircle-shaped piece on the back and yellow angles. In the second season, they upgrade their Duel Boards to match the specifications of the upgraded models commonly used in LINK VRAINS 2.0.

Upgraded Duel Boards[edit]
During the second season, the legal introduction of Speed Duels to the general public resulted in upgraded Duel Boards that were easier to control and also more powerful, often with more elaborate features than those seen in the first season. When they move through the air, they emit a blue flame from their engines. They do not need Data Storms to fly, but still require Data Material to operate.
