    Hey man....Im pretty sure the superfly is the lightest with all the options you mentioned....19 ounces
    Heres a link to a Bridge inside a superfly with a pole mod...
    Poles would add a bit.....

    Not sure if you have seen the JRB tarp.

    JRB

    Not sure if it fits your requirements either.
    Just thought I'd throw it out there as I have a brand new one I would be willing to part with at a nice price.

    I set it up differently every time I pitch it. It all depends on the site, weather and my intentions for the night... Porch gives great views, so that's my favorite. That pitch was from last night. It rained from a few minutes after I layed down, until after I got up. Staying dry while watching rain fall in the forest was a real treat.

    I have a set of grip clips from the jacks not as light tho. I'm really liking the super fly.
