If i were to guess
9 extra holes probably .5x.5 @ Al 6061 = .01lb x 9 = .09lb...give or take? lol

I weighed both of the couplers for you without packaging, just the 2 kawi style yamaha coupler halves with no dampener. 0.7oz difference in weight.
Cold Fusion coupler 1lb. 1.8oz.
ADA coupler 1lb. 2.5oz.
I think the principal gain from these couplers is their much smaller diameter than oem yami so less rotating mass at less distance from the center. Also, since they are smaller, the bottom of the coupler is higher from the bottom of your ski and they get hung up less and splash less by any water standing in the bilge after tricks or falls.
