I find my aggressive inline skates (jacks) too heavy to comfortably do jumps and grinds with. Any reccomendations?

If you have a lot of spare money buy Carbons or Adapts. If you don't, then train your legs more.

Razors has the Super light (SL) series, too. They're supposed to be light, but I have no clue exactly how light. Like Shadow said, strengthening your legs would be the cheapest alternative. Haha If that's the case, after a while, the weight won't be as significant.
