The 2010 Liquid Force Influence and Influence Grind are true high end rides! Although the shape has stayed the same from the previous year, every other aspect of the board has changed...for the better!
A wood/PVC combo core, the addition of LFs’ new Liquid Rails, and a thinned out profile are a few of the features that make this board stand out from the rest. But getting this board on the water is where it truly shines! The single to double concave provides ultra smooth landings and the progressive flex provides super pop while at the same time eats up choppy water.
Influence Vs. Influence Grind: The differences lies under the board, in the base to be specific. The bottom of the Grind is instead made with a PTEX base. This base gives added protection to the boards’ durability.
Check out below to see what some of the REAL Team has to say about the all new 2010 LF Influence.
“Finally a high performance board for a big guy! The one feature that sold this board for me is the double concave, it saves your knees from hard landing.” – Bryan Elkus
“The 2010 Influence is lighter, faster, stronger and most importantly MORE FLEX! This is a winning combo for this 3 stage rockered monster. The first impression from anyone that has tried this board is how well it goes upwind and how smooth through the chop it rides. If you want a wide template twin that works well in all conditions, the 2010 Influence is a must buy.” - REAL Co-Founder Matt Nuzzo
"I am so stoked on the 2010 Influence from Liquid Force. Jimmy Redmon and I worked on the Influence to replace the Mission as my pro model board and brought it into the LF family of boards last year. The shape was amazing and the board rode well, but there were a few things missing from our original vision of what we wanted the board to be. We wanted: calculated flex, more durable rails, & a thinner profile but simply ran out of time. For 2010, Jimmy was able to meet that original vision and far exceed my expectations!
The 2010 Influence is the most advanced and smoothest riding board that Liquid Force has ever produced! The CNC’d wood/PVC combo core is insane! The PVC foam keeps the board ultra light weight, while the wood allows the board to flex for absorbing chop, exploding pop, and pressing on sliders. The new addition of Liquid Rails (poured urethane rather than ABS) has increased the durability and adds to the overall smooth ride that you get with the 2010 Liquid Force Influence. We have added a 142cm Influence to the line to accommodate larger riders (like me!) and riders who want a high performance board for light winds.
Stop into the REAL Flagship store and check out the 2010 Liquid Force Influence for yourself!" - Liquid Force and REAL Team Rider Jason Slezak
