Does anyone know the following weights of these boards.. I want a light board and Ronix and Liquid force does not post their weights.

Ronix one 142

Watson 142.

Please help.. I need a light setup, last years was way too heavy.

They're both a lot lighter than the Parks if that's what you're asking.

I don't know specifically, but I'd guess the Watson is about 8lb and the Ronix is a hair lighter if not the same.

the box that my watson came in was weighted at 14 lbs according to Fedex... Or maybe that was the camera housing... There were two boxes, one with an epic camera housing, and one with the board. One weighed 7 lbs, another 14...

Anything has to be lighter than my parks.. But I think my Shane Closed toes didnt help out much either.. So I got the watson open toes and man, for size 12-13, there real tight.. But much lighter than my closed toes..

Im thinking about the watson, CWB transend says it weighs almost 8 pounds, but if the watson is lighter, then I'd rather go with it..

I was also thinking of the PS3, Is that also a good light board?

IMO all liquid force boards will weight the same (unless you get the newer flex boards).

I have a 139 axis and a 136 shane and they weight the same - probably an ounce difference. I always thought the parks felt so heavy was because it had that weird tail weight to it and wasn't balanced tip to tail.

But you're not going to be able to tell the difference of .5lb, or even 1-2lb, when you're riding. Buy a board that fits your riding style and not one that weights the least.

get a dark core if you care that much about weight I have heard those are quite light.

My Covin 143 weighs in around 8 pounds, I can't imagine a 142 One weighing any more than that...
