| More like Hyperheavy... Hyperlites are awsome and they are made better and will last longer but i think the LF watson with the watson bindings is the lightest set up out there... its pretty light, and i use to ride a hyperlite Murray 138 but it broke and got water logged and sinks now when you put it in the water but i guess all boards break.. my friends LF subject cracked just doin a wake jump but they are all relly nice boards and will last you a long time if you take care of them |

I agree with WattsBarRiDr about the watson setup being the lightest I've ever ridden, but it's a three stage. _________________ www.munsonski.com

I've never ridden a Watson before, and I picked one up the other day (not bought, picked up, ) at our local sports shop. Damn that thing is LIGHT. Does anybody know it's actual weight? |

| If you're concerned about pop, then why not go for a three stage rocker!? Are there any sites out there that list the actual weight of the boards? |

Funded Tech is the lightest.
Aside from that, maybe an old Lavelle Honeycomb.
Aside from that, CWB's Absolute Platinum.
Oh, and Wakeworld has stats on weight, which are hit and miss. _________________

Weight
doesn't
matter!
Seriously, unless you're spinning 9s or are riding a 10 pound blank you'll never notice it while riding. It's all in your head. _________________ Why Vegan? |

| It seems a lot of the boards are close in weight these days however the bindings can differ greatly in weight. I have a set of LF Alphas (O4') on a LF Balance and that set up is really light. My buddy's LF Team with LF Transit (05) or his CWB Transcend and LF Transit (05) weighs a ton compared to my set up. If you're really concerned about weight don't overlook the weight of your bindings. |
