Liquid Force Tao Wakeboard 2017

Everyone know's Daniel Grant is an absolute animal in the cable park. What some people don't know though is that he rides the Liquid Force Tao Wakeboard almost exclusively. Updated for 2017, the new Tao comes equipped with Liquid Force's FlexTrack system that enables riders to take full advantage of the smooth flexing, playful feel this board offers. With a wide center concave that transitions into shaped channels below your feet, the Tao maintains stability and control without compromising its finless design. For aggressive park riders looking to up their rail game yet still have enough oomph to get sendy off the kickers, make sure you don't miss the better than ever Tao Wakeboard.

Product Details

Rocker Type

3 Stage RockerBreak in rocker curve for an aggressive riding style. Flatter center curve for speed and rail control. Exaggerated exit angle through the tips gives a bucking pop off the wake.

Flex

3(1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Hull

Stepped DeckProvides increased strength in the center, a lively response, and softer landings.

Single ConcaveCenter concave softens landings.

Edge Channels

Rails/Edges

Liquid RailsLiquid Force's elastomeric sidewalls deliver unsurpassed durability and strength for your endless cable park progression. This color coded material moves with your board as it flexes and keeps it together through every hit and rail you dish out.

Concave Beveled EdgesSmooth and catch-free on the rails with bite and hold on the water.

Core

Wood / PU CoreLiquid Force's Wood / PU core gives you the best of both worlds... the flex and spring of a solid wood core and the strength and resilience of a PU core. Whether you're hitting the cable or out behind the boat, this core will make sure you are at the height of your game.

Laminates

TriaxExtra strength and extra flex... Why not? This layup provides you with added torsional rigidity and increased longitudinal flex.

Base

Grind BaseGet the strongest base possible while maintaining the performance features of each finely tuned hull shape. Liquid Force's Grind Base molds to the board's contours and provides solid protection all season long.

Fins

FinlessSometimes less is more. Why have fins if you don't use them. Daniel Grant doesn't so why should you?

Additional Features

FlexTrackFlexTrack is the industry's first flexible binding track! The track moves with you and the board as you twist into carves and press onto rails creating an unmatched connection, making you and your board one.

Binding

Liquid Force Flex 4D Wakeboard Bindings 2017

Prepare yourselves for a new wave of wakeboarding style and trickery; the Liquid Force Flex 4D Wakeboard Bindings have landed. Utilizing a revolutionary 4D Chassis construction, these bindings have a minimal footprint that shaves 15% of the weight from previous models for truly explosive maneuvers on the water (when paired with an LF Flextrack board, the results become nuclear). Dual Lace Zones provide a perfect fit whether you like your bindings tight on the forefoot or ankle and the Reflex Liner brings much needed impact support as park features continue to get bigger and bigger. Coming in at a 5/10 stiffness rating, the Liquid Force Flex 4D Wakeboard Bindings deliver all the flex needed for tweaking the heck out of your presses and grabs while remaining supportive enough to also take them big.

Product Details

Flex

5(1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Articulating Upper CuffFeatured on the pro models, an articulating cuff allows maximum range of motion. The upper flexes independently like a hinge without material buckling.

Fit

Slim Fit

Semi-Rigid Quarter PanelsA more form fitting quarter panel hugs your foot and allows more responsive movements.

Liner & Lacing

Reflex LinerThe Reflex features totally new tongue design that wraps your ankle for a better fit and more supportive flex. The new Reflex liner tongue has tapered edges reducing material overlap inside the binding. This feature reduces bulk and eliminates air gaps for a snug, full contact fit. The notched top cuff improves your range of motion and has a better fit for larger calf muscles. The Reflex also has a 3D molded Impact EVA bottom featuring 2.5 degrees of cant, toe lift, a deep heel cup and a supportive arch underneath your foot.

Dual Lace Zones with Lace End KeeperAll men's and women's adult bindings feature LF's dual lacing. The dual lace zone system allows the lace tension to be different in the lower and upper zones. This gives the rider a custom fit for a secure and comfortable feeling.

Adjustable Length Upper Velcro Strap

EZ Glide Lace SystemSpecially designed injection molded parts that allow the laces to move unrestricted when tightening and loosening the binding lace zones.

Baseplate

4D ChassisThe 4D Chassis has the smallest footprint in the industry! The small footprint allows the board to perform at its truest flex, giving you maximum response. The 4D construction also reduced the weight by 15%. This means a more responsive binding, softer landings and a more comfortable ride. NOTE: 4D Bindings are only compatible with Liquid Force Flextrack boards.

Additional Features

Bottom Dampening and Anti-Slip TPE BottomBottom dampening that displaces hard impacts and keeps the binding from sliding on top of the board.

Honeycomb FlexFloorLF's exclusive FlexFloor absorbs impact, reduces weight of the binding, and provides performance driven flex.

45˚ Angle AttachmentWith attachment points under the riders feet, leverage is increased, creating better board response and flex within all directions.

40mm M6 4D Binding ScrewRugged M6 Screws ensure maximum hold.

Nylon Injection Reversable Angle MountNylon angle locks allow adjustability for stance angles and eliminates heavy metal parts, simple and functional.

TPU Injected Toe CapRiveted and glue-less toe cap that is stitched to the upper, offering flex and durability to prevent toe "stump."
