So I want to LIGHTEN up my 24 Turbo Summit and make her more NIMBLE...

If you would just commit to staying on the boost you could take the skis off entirely 
thats a WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL of commitment!!!!!If you would just commit to staying on the boost you could take the skis off entirely
So which SKIS should I be considering?
and here I was thinking RED was the way to go!
Grippers.
I ran those on my Super Charged Nytro 15 years ago
didn't even know they were still in production
Polaris grippers are probably the lightest skis out there. IDK how they compare in the handling and steering department to the ski-doo skis.
I like aggressive skis because I want them to steer where I point them and not push. I prefer a more rigid handling feel too. So I run powder pros. My arms and shoulders pay for it by the end of the day though.

My opinion about the skis, if you want to replace stock DS4 skis.
Lightest steering, lightest feel of riding: Ski-Doo DS3
- Needs better ski rubbers (DJ, salazzking, etc.)
- Works great on good powder and lower speeds
- A bit unstable on higher speeds
- Weak point is crusty snow and layers
Most balanced ride: Polaris Gripper
- More flotation than the stock skis, DS3 or DS4
- Works good in every condition
- Needs reinforcements on ski bolt attachment. Overall not as durable as other skis, bends easiest If gets some hits
- Hard to find ski-rubbers that fit with ski-doo spindle
Best for fast paced, agressive & precise riding: C&A TMX
- Very stable even on high speeds
- Holds the line best of all skis
- A bit heavier steering, so go for short wear bars/carbides
