  WORK IN PROGRESS
  
A challenge was set in 2007 to construct  the lightest landboard in the world
       This would be a  fully functional freestyle landboard.
       It is now complete with the bonus of some very light spin-off components
       (which should be compatible with most skate type set-ups).

       Weights so far:
       LB17 Integrated Carbon Deck and Footstraps: 1200 grams
       Trucks plus Carbon Hubs, Polymer bearings, Tyres and Tubes 2100 grams a pair
       Total Weight: 3300 grams,  but currently working on Tubeless (or Tubes made from TPU).
       This will save another 320 grams for running tubeless or 264 with the TPU ones.
