I just looked at the Trinity link.
Eight pounds is pretty light for a modern design vee tube, probably the lowest weight tube on the market. I know the guys airfreighting them into distant locations prefer them for that reason.
The lightest tube ever was probably the Del Canty designed Lunker Hunter tubes.
They were round donut tubes with no bladder, the cover being airtight. Total weight was under 3 pounds.
Now that's a target weight to beat!
