“For 2010, the new season at Liquid Force brings you new shapes, new graphic directions and treatments, and completely new materials and manufacturing methods. We offer more choices in delivering the magic stick for whatever riding conditions you encounter, or wish to challenge in your present and future riding journeys.

Their need for the “right” board has pushed us to create several styles of boards to maximize fun, performance, and durability for each of the particular riding environments and styles.” Read more…

“Sweat, stamped passports, and stacked sessions—such were the makings of Nike 6.0’s groundbreaking first wakeskate team movie. Aquafrolics captures the travels, travails, and progression-fueled fun had by the talented 6.0 teamriders over the past year. The crew—Nick Taylor, Ben Horan, Matt Manzari, and Andrew Pastura—joined forces with innovative filmer Matt Staker to push the envelope on both riding and filming techniques. From winching rivers in the Philippines, to countless hours behind the Sea-Doo, and never-before landed tricks at Ben’s homemade backyard pond, not to mention all the impromptu roadtrips and camera-angle experimentation—Aquafrolics is packed with insane action and sheer love of the sport.”
