This stand has the light weight you're looking for and a great retro look you didn't even know you needed. The DW 6700UL's light-gauge steel tubing and low-mass joints are engineered to provide stable placement without weighing down your hardware bag. A flat base and minimal look keep this stand from cluttering your stage decor—a feature which vintage kit enthusiasts are sure to appreciate. Drummers were quick to note DW's Glide Tilter in the DW 6700UL, which positions the boom arm at any angle for unhindered playability despite the Ultralight's reduced footprint.
I love the lightness of the stand, great for traveling without extra pounds to haul. However this stand is not too great for bigger cymbals, it almost fell over the first time I struck a china on it - luckily there was a camera guy there to save it from falling over. I didn't realize the leg span was so tiny. Ideal for a splash cymbal. I would opt for the lightweight DW stand without the boom, the boom throws the balance off center.
