You're thinking the much fatter Big Daddy and Sugar Daddy or the much
skinner R:11.  The Rex and its Texmex tele twin (or whatever it's called)
are plateless, and are pretty much the lightest skis you can find for their
waist width.

Interesting though how light those 912 Titanium models are -- I guess they
really used quite a bit of Ti in them?  (The non-Ti models though are as
much as 41% heavier than the DFR.)
