Daihi Susumu (born 16 October 1952 as Susumu Ogura) is a former sumo wrestler from Nagoya, Aichi, Japan. He made his professional debut in March 1968, and reached the top division in January 1977. His highest rank was maegashira 2. For much of his active career he was known under the shikona of Onobori, before switching to Daihi in 1978. He retired in May 1983 and became an elder in the Japan Sumo Association under the name Yamahibiki and coached at Oyama stable. In April 1986 the acting stablemaster (ex-ōzeki Matsunobori) died and Daihi took over the stable and the Oyama name. The stable was shut down in June 1986 and he became a coach at Takasago stable. He moved to Azumazeki stable in December 2011 and as of 2016 he is a coach there, still under the Oyama name.
