Is there a particular brand of board known for being lightweight, without compromising overall durability and performance?
What would be the average weight of boards?
Thanks in advance for your response.

I have ridden different models of boards from the following mfgs:
- Crazyfly
- Cabrinha
- Spleene
- Ocean Rodeo
- North
- Jimmy Lewis
- Nobile
- RRD
- Liquid Force
The lightest weight board out of the above mfgs was by far the Nobile (555 and 2HD). I can't tell you the weight of any of the boards. I just know from feel that the Nobile was by far the lightest weight board. And it is the one I liked the most out of the boards I have listed. Partially due to how light weight it is and how flexible it is too. The Nobile 2HD is pretty detailed in its construction. Check it out. But man these things are expensive. I got lucky and found a seller in need of some quick cash so I made out like a bandit when I purchased mine.
Good luck.
