I've only seen two skate weights. The Sk8W8 which is pretty expensive (around $35) and an older metal weight a friend of mine was skating with over the summer.
The Sk8W8 isn't heavy at all, but it attached very easily. The guys I asked to try it we're not impressed at all.
The older weight needed an allen wrench to attach and was a beast. My friend said there was a noticeable difference when he had them on.
