yup probably lighter than districts, there is no way the weight of your clamp is affecting you, don't worry about the weight of your scooter, i like a little extra weight, helps you get more control on transfers, like from ramp to ramp, especially at an awkward angle, and on grinds too.

Some extra weight gives you more control, and makes it feel like the shit wont just fall apart in the middle of something haha. And most of the time, heavier parts and stronger.

Things like the weight of your deck, bars, and forks matter because of weight distribution. But little stuff like bars, brakes, and (usually) wheels shouldnt matter that much.

Alright, you came to us for advice but you wont take it.. If youre gonna get sarcastic and not just take our word for it, find out for yourself. Go buy all the clamps you want, maybe an SCS and compare the weight. Even if you get a district clamp, it might be a FRACTION of an ounce heavier or lighter. Im trying to help you and say that the clamp you have is fine, the weight of your clamp shouldnt effect you that much. And if it does, then theres gotta be a bigger problem.
Before you try to blame everything on the weight of such small parts that dont make any sort of difference, look at everything else. Your personal strength, your footing, your style, how hard you pull back, how hard you bend your knees, etc.

If you cant pull your scooter up, the clamp is NOT your problem.

.... Stop being so stubborn and listen to people! The clamp is NOT the heaviest thing besides your deck!
Look at how you ride! Look at your footing! Look at what you can improve yourself! Its not always the parts.
