Mask (and accessories) Weights

[Bluehands]

Hey guys, there are a lot of members here who are mask addicted so I just thought I'd post some weights of some of the popular mask frames and accessories that I have, have had or tried. It might help you choose a back-up or lighten up your current rig a little. Every little bit helps. Though I can't attest to perfect calibration on my scale, I am using the same scale for each item so the differences in weight by comparison should be very accurate. Everything here is listed down from lighter to heaviest.

Also, if you guys want to 'weigh in' your own items that aren't listed here, feel free.

I don't have 'em but here's a review post including some other brand pads not in my list from 2011. I don't know if anything has changed much with their design since then but it says 5 oz total...Maybe someone here can weigh theirs?

Sorry to revive an older post. But I came into what I believe to be a Nike Titanium. It weighs out at just under 17oz in total (mask, pads, and harness). You can find photos at 

Also... what does a Nike Steel weigh? Does anyone know?
