While the Light Board possesses a relatively small Air Tank, is not exceptional fast and consumes more Air than usual when boosting, it can carry the player's speed in gameplay for up to 3-4 times longer than most Extreme Gears can when boosting or when htting a Dash Panel. More so, when receving these speed boosts on the Light Board, they will not slow down unless the player is attacked, though it is still susceptible to being hit by obstacles or other Dash Panels that can break the boost. The Light Board also makes it easier for the player to perform Trick Actions.

Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity
"The lightest gear available, it allows even the heaviest rider to use gravity control on a dime."
