Are they not average weight? Might as well name any park ski on the market. This guy asked for the lightest ski, not skis.

But lets be honest, swing weight is really the only thing that matters, and the AR7 excels there.

Not necessarily.  Plus so many other skis qualify if we play that game.

if your looking to buy a light ski, it wont matter if your mounting a pair of heavy bindings on them, thats where most of the weight comes from. As far as a light ski i would have to say any of the surface stuff, i've heard they're pretty light, but because of that and that surface is a small comany they break pretty easily.

i would say the Halos really excel there, since they are tapered. I personally found the AR7's to be heavy at first

The amplid syntax is probably one of the lightest skis ive ever held. Its got that crazy hexo2 core

Very true, let's not forget about bindings, where many are a lot heavier than others.

from personal experience i can say that Ninthward henrik harlaut pro model, aswell as the lecomte (I THINK) is incredibly, almost ridiculously light and poppy. such a playful ski, speaking aobut the henrik harlaut pro model.
