At around 900 g each it's heavier than the old Falcor (820 g) but lighter than the Force and Atlas (1 kg). Hybrid rubber and EVA foam wrap the mini disc so it flexes well underfoot, and buttering is easy despite the foam wings alongside the baseplate.
The response is good, but the reviewer's honest assessment is that there's no perceptible improvement over the old model.
