The Illusion is everything Matty Muncey needs to turn a rail jam into a spectacle. Matty has been associated with the Illusion since day one—this year it’s official! Jimmy meticulously worked with Matty to fine-tune all the little details in his signature board, arriving at the 2026 Illusion.
Packed with a new, elongated Just the Tip tech zone for locked-in presses that rolls into a new rocker profile, the board also features a toned-down lifted rail for a more playful feel on the the water's surface. Matty’s unique riding demands a board that stays reactive through every press without slipping when he pushes the limits.
The new Control Base is engineered for smooth slides across features with a generous surface area underfoot. The flexy tips, stiff center, and reduced weight make this a park weapon for anyone chasing buttery style and full-speed control.
Product Features
Benefits
Reduced Weight in Tips for Lower Swing Weight and Increased Response! Updated exit angles at the tip/tail blend more fluidly into the rocker profile.
Updated CNC'd top contour with more scooped out area between rider's feet aids in weight reduction, while adding additional core strength.
Designed to slide! Predictable control from larger flat zone underfoot. Sliders easier with less hang-ups, and extremely durable with no "quick-burn".
Optimized board flex with Liquid Force 4D Bindings. While remaining universally compatible with ALL other wakeboard bindings


By removing material from the tip and tail of the boards core we reduce weight and improve response. On the water that means free, easy spins thanks to the reduced swing weight and cleaner, higher ollies thanks to the weight reduction. Just the Tip technology is incorporated on Matty's Illusion seen on the translucent pocket window and removed excess material on Nico's Peak.

We created our Flextrack™ to allow the insert bar to be able to twist, flex and move while riding to allow the board to flex naturally, the way it was designed to. This industry first tech gives the best board to binding connection with no heel/toe lift when used with our 4D™ bindings. The perfect partner for any of our 4D™ bindings and fits any 4D™ or 6' spread binding with unlimited stance options.

Redefining how your board reacts on water and equally as important - on features! With valued input from Rivers, Gavin, and Matty...the LF R&D Team have devised a brand new base profile for 2026. The Control Base slides incredibly easy on features with minimized hang-ups. The oversized flat zone gives riders predictable control while in presses or lip slides.

Liquid Force is proud to announce that as of November 2020, all of our wakeboards, wakesurf boards, and foil boards that are produced by our partner factory SWS, are 100% produced by solar energy! We are happy to be able to to say that our boards are now "Made by the Sun" and that we are leading the charge in the global effort for sustainability and reduced carbon footprint.
