Liquid Force Tao Cable Wakeboard

The Tao rides with the same relentless energy as Daniel Grant himself — charging hard, going huge, and pressing with style. Built with Hotbox technology, this board is designed to flex out smoothly while still holding the strength to send it big. The CNC’d top core creates a raised wakeskate-inspired center, giving stiffness underfoot while allowing the tips to flex where you need it most. Daniel kept the base simple with minimal channeling, ensuring it stays fast on the water and completely hang-up free on features. A true park weapon for riders who want both power and freedom. Whether you’re locking into a heavy rail or boosting off the kicker, the Tao is built to deliver consistent performance. With its playful flex and bombproof durability, it’s designed to keep up with the most progressive riders on the water.

Benefits

LOOSE & LOCKED IN – A smooth single concave runs through the center of the board, blending into edge channels at the tips. This gives a loose, playful feel when you want it, but still locks in confidently on rails and transitions, delivering the best of both worlds for park riders.

HOTBOX TECHNOLOGY – The lowered center “wakeskate” section lets you sink deeper into the board for an ultra-direct, connected feel. The reinforced rails add durability and strength, while a mellow cant around the binding mounts sits 2–3mm lower than the top sheet. This creates an unbelievably planted sensation that enhances control and confidence in every trick.

WOOD CORE – Constructed with profiled paulownia wood from tip to tail, the core provides trusted stability, strength, and a natural flex. It remains solid underfoot between the bindings for dependable support while thinning toward the tips to allow smooth flex and press performance on obstacles.
