fks120 aren't heavy at all, your lighter options I guess are the Z series from Solly, but you won't get many people supporting that

no. they are the 3rd lightest i know of. the only lighter are z12s and 912s. they are a half a pound lighter per binding than px12 jibs. i would say light-mid for fks 120. but i would agree with you on the fks 155 and 185. they are purdy heavy if i do say so myself.

since you're a lightweight guy, get some salomon z12's.  they're fine for your weight and they're really really light.  they'll be great for you.

dont listen to him. He defends his lovely deadbolts in every situation possible.

Trust me, and the majority of NS when I say Look and rossi are the best/safest out there. You dont need the FKS 120, everyone is suggesting them because they are going to stop production, and they are all on sale.

Like Mark said, the Z12 would be good, or the PX12 JIB would be great too, especially for 100$.
