Step Into the Future of Wakeboarding with the 2025 Liquid Force Ethos

Get ready to push your limits—the all-new Liquid Force Ethos 2025 is here to redefine what’s possible behind the boat. Designed for riders who crave progression and innovation, the Ethos is a next-level wakeboard born from experience, experimentation, and elite-level feedback.

Over the past 18 months, pro rider Guenther Oka took a deep dive into the entire LF wakeboard lineup. With a season spent riding every board in the collection, he gained a fresh perspective on what works, what elevates performance, and what truly makes a board fun to ride. That insight fueled a complete redesign of his pro model through Liquid Force’s “Athlete Driven Innovation” process.

Inspired by everything Guenther loved about his previous board, the Rhyme, the 2025 Ethos blends familiar features with exciting upgrades. The result? A ride that’s more responsive, more energetic, and more in tune with the modern wakeboarder’s needs.

If you’re ready to ride what Guenther calls his favorite board to date, it’s time to experience the Ethos. More power, more control, and more stoke—this is wakeboarding reimagined. This brand new 2025 shape is part of Liquid Force’s “Dealer Exclusive” series and is only available at authorized Liquid Force retailers – Including your 2024 E-Commerce Dealer of the Year BuyWake.com.

“The journey has been unreal, the time off I had from my injury did give us an opportunity to sit back and reflect on what we really wanted to do with the new shape.  It really was like ‘Love at First Ride’ almost.  Once we got the version that ended up working, that’s when I knew…THIS is the feeling that I wanted everyone to have the first time they jumped on the Ethos. You don’t have to have a Pro Tour Win under your belt, anyone can ride it…and that’s the beauty of it.” – Guenther Oka

Benefits:

• P2 Core Construction – A perfectly harmonious blend of all the benefits that wood and foam have to offer. Dual Wooden Stringers add life and responsiveness while the PU Foam sections provide weight reduction and stability.  The Ethos naturally sits lower in the water than traditional PU or AERO Core boards, allowing the fins, channels, and open side-wall to engage further into the water for provide an incredibly stable ride. 
• Open Side Walls – Truly allowing the Ethos to stand-out within the Boat Board Line-up.  Profiled effective edge of the board allows the Ethos to track cleaner and have more movements through the water while on edge.  Giving you crisp clean cuts into and away from the wake.
• “It’s like Riding on a Cloud” – During testing, this response came up on several different occasions. Not only from Guenther, but everyone that rode it. The Weight Reduction is real and you’ll feel it the moment you get your hands on an Ethos.
