Element has announced that they will be making a new series and construction of skateboards called "Featherlight Helium". Basically, the boards will have holes cut out in between the glued-together layers. Though apparntly its not filled with helium, it does reduce weight, and Element claims the construction actually makes the boards stronger.
Defenitly going to be intresting to hear how these things ride when they come out. Element has always made some pretty sweet boards, their Featherlights were a fair bit lighter, I love their Fiberlights… If the trend continues, these boards should be nuts!
