i think the thalls are the lightest, but im not sduse about the ghettos. as for pe's, k2 skis aren't known for being light, but my frieand has the '07 and they aren't that bad. alot stiffer than my dumonts.

public's are relatively heavy.  invaders are light, but they also suck ass.  ghettos are amongst the lightest.  thalls are pretty damn light too.

i had crons lines best most bomb proof prak ski i love em, there stiffer so that there great for jumps and next years are sidewalled so its prolly the best bet besides the ghettos.

chrons are super dope too.  they're just stiffer and more deliberate feeling than the ghetto.  the  ghetto has more pop and is easier to use in my opinion.

they could be i guess...  i didn't notice any difference though, so it's not significant if they are softer.  chronic blends are the shit.

according to j. lev in the sia video he says that the flex was softened slightly and made symmetrical (tail is same as nose i think) and the weight is that there pretty light historyicly speaking.
