Hi Bill, the Olympic in the foreground has been around a few years. Its stablemate the Olympian is a Randy design from 1996 based on an SV-11. It came in at 70 ounces. That includes a 90's vintage pipe which is about 2 ounces heavier than the current ones. A new pipe may be in the cards sometime in the future.  8)
