Liquid Force Tao Wakeskate

Daniel Grant’s signature wakeskate returns for 2026, refreshed with a bold new graphic and the same high-performance design riders know and trust. The Tao has earned its reputation in the wakeskate world thanks to its perfectly tuned weight and balance — it stays connected with you whether you’re floating out into the flats, coming off a rail, or sending it off a kicker. This consistency makes flip tricks, shuv-its, and technical maneuvers more manageable, helping you land cleaner and spend less time in the water.

A contoured 3D-molded top sheet delivers a skateboard-like feel underfoot, offering control, comfort, and confidence with every move. Daniel designed this board with progression in mind, making sure it has everything you need to charge hard in the park, behind the winch, or at your home spot. To expand its versatility, the Tao also comes with pre-drilled pilot holes for LF Nub Skate Fins, giving you the option to add extra bite for nose slides, blunts, and other rail tricks. Paired with Nub Fins, it becomes an even more dialed-in tool for creative riding and all-out fun.
