For a light weight beater I'd deffinatley go for the tama. Just try to get the ones with the moveable weight on the shaft, that can be really helpful.

Also I'd consider getting a beater that has a better positioned weight for example the sonor or slugg beaters. Both have a medium weight to them, but I find the elongated head puts more weight directly front and back and feels very pleasing. Try a lot out at your drum store to find what you want.
