Our Board Story....
Liquid Force is driven by relentless innovation and pure fun. We love making the best boards for all riders of stoke and style in every imag-
inable riding environment. Over this long strange trip, that mission has resulted in more advancements in performance and more great
times with our global family than we can count. From getting the smallest groms smiling on their first ride to giving them the goods for their
first park session, and by continually designing and driving the future of the sport with our Team Bros, a few things have remained constant
since our start.

It all begins with great feedback from our riders. The desire to make that special ride for one of our riders has been the beginning of every
LF board. From the Trip to Shane’s new hybrid models, they all started as hand crafted protos. As these boards are released to our team,
everyone gets a chance to ride, rinse, and repeat – and respond.

This interaction of ideas and constant testing gives our team a solid understanding of how each others’ equipment works and how to make
them better next time we’re back in the shaping room – where it all begins again
Since day one – every single Liquid Force board – an idea, handmade, in these shoes.

METRIC INSERTS / hARDWARE
While working on our hybrid lineup for 2012, we aimed to create the thinnest,
most flexible boards on the market. In doing so, it became apparent that we
would need to use a thinner insert bar (depth wise). We quickly realized that
we were limited to what we could do with a standard 1/4-20 bolt insert because
we couldn’t get enough turns with the mounting screws into a thin insert bar. The logical step was to use
a bar with metric inserts. Metric threads are closer together and hold better with using half the depth of
a 1/4-20 screw. Using a metric M6 insert allowed us to have the most secure binding to board interface
ever. Bottom line, it’s a better connection! Instead of limiting this advancement to our hybrid boards, we
decided to put a metric screw insert pack into every one of our 2012 boards. you can be guaranteed that
no matter what new LF board you buy, you’ll have the most advanced and most secure system available!

Rocker curve is one of the roots of the performance definition of a board. Different styles and approaches require different curves.
ROCKER There is no “right” curve that works for everyone; it’s all about what feels right for you. That’s why our full line of boards incorporates
varying degrees of three basic rocker types. From the smooth flow of our Trips to the high arcing pop of a pro hybrid, or for a board
that blends the two curves for a more consistent feel, we’ve got the right feel for your style.

CONTINUOUS hyBRID ThREE STAgE

• Smooth, predictable ride • • Blends two curves together for improved performance • • Break in rocker curve for aggressive riding style •
• Flowing transitions into turns • • Consistent feel through smooth center curve • • Flatter center curve for speed and rail control •
• Long trajectory arc off the wake • • Increased curve through ends for higher arc into the air • • Exaggerated tip curve for a bucking pop off wake •


hyBRID TEChNOLOgy
From pure performance in park/rail ripping to the ultimate All-Terrain Ride, our hybrid models have something to
offer for all conditions.
LF hybrids incorporate four elements to deliver to the stoke:
CNC milled cores with Internal stringers systems, triaxial glass construction, Liquid Rail elastomeric sidewalls, and
our gRIND base all combine to give a responsive flex and livelier pop off the wake, softer landings, added control
on rails and off of kickers, and unmatched durability. Fused with our proven hull shapes, hybrids give you the best
of both worlds in one board.

CARBON x LIQUID RAILS
Our pro models feature a unique Carbon Our Liquid Rail elastormeric sidewalls are the strongest edges on the market.

has dialed in his desired sweet spot to optimize
their board’s customized performance feel.

Liquid Force makes boards that work and LAST.
gRIND BASE Our exclusive sintered gRIND base has allowed us to develop the most complete line of boards to stand up
to the daily grind of the heaviest park environments. This season we have 47 different models featuring gRIND
bases because we want your magic board to be able to take you where you want to go – day after day.

perhaps the most talked about rider on and off the water over the past year, Bob
Soven’s first pro model binding, the B1 will no doubt be one of the most talked
about products this year. As he is a bit different from the norm, it’s no surprise
that Bob’s binding would follow suit. While most other pro level riders are 100%
committed to the closed toe revolution, Bob swears by the freedom of letting his
toes fly in the wind. Although an open toe design, the B1 comes equipped with
a velcro toe-strap adding maximum control over the toe area. If you’re like our
“ginger phenom” Bob, and just prefer to have the water tapping your toes while in
