What is the lightest and compact 7 to 9' tall light stand?

I'm tired of my big light stands, there must be something smaller and lighter.  Can you suggest a good portable light stand that will extend up to 7 to 9 feet, but lightweight when stored away?

Markuspix on Youtube recently did a pretty good comparison of light and tall light stands.

Neewer heavy duty stand is what I'm using, honestly can't recall how tall they are, but will say extremely sturdy.

Adroama has some inexpensive ones from Flashpoint that are good and won't break the bank
