Hey im getting the T-hall, and I coudn't find the weight of it anywhere, I mean, I know it's light but how light is it. If I find out I can compare it to my other skis. So I just wonder if anyone has the T-hall or know the weight of it in gramms? =D

+++K to all good answers.

Due you made me curious so I searched as well but sorry bro couldn't find anything. I rode Pipe Cleaners all last winter and they are really light as you said. The thing I noticed more than the lightness was the low swing weight. I had Punx and Pipe Cleaners (both light) but when I set a spin with my pipe cleaners they would just flow with me until I wanted to set down. I am kinda drunk and typed a bunch more but then deleted it because you probly don't need my life story. I hope you find the weight but I doubt it will happen unless you buy them and see the shipping weight. good luck

I love em. Used them for over a full season and have no edge cracks. Super light and poppy, really good fast bases. Only con is that they are a very light bamboo core and after a lot of use they start to lose their camber. But really when you are skiing you don't even notice and they are still as poppy as ever. But this will happen to every very light ski over time.

Just two more questions:

Is it a symmertrical ski?
And is it a skinny ski? (like from one side over to the other across the ski, under the boot)

I think they're near dead on because i took this link http://www.backcountry.com/store/qanda/92586/how-much-do-they-weigh.html
which says that they weigh 7.6 lbs at 166 cm. divide 7.6 by 166 and you get a small decimal.
Take that decimal and multiply it by whichever length you want to know the weight of and you have it.

cheers!

so liberty lte weighs about 6.7 pounds

and t-hall's weigh about 7.8 pounds

one lte weighs about 3.3 pounds

one armada weighs about 3.8 pounds

its a small difference. i would go t-hall because it barely weighs more and is probably more durable.

That still gives you a rough estimate, ski weight doesnt linearly relate to length. You got stuff like tip spacers and binding mats that are standard length no matter what size ski.

Its probably a matter of ounces honestly. Unless its a matter of a full pound or two, I really wouldn't care if it was me.
