I ordered a silver plated summit right when they went on sale here. It is really cool! If it added any weight I’d be surprised. The yoyo feels REALLY light! I’ve got several nickel yoyo’s and this one is tarnishing quicker, I’ve had it about a week and it has signs of tarnish already. ---

It does add a little bit of weight. Maybe half a gram. It is a soft metal so I’d recommend being gentle and kind to them. They tarnish really really easy. We have to wear gloves when assembling them. I’m sure we’ll end up doing more but for now it’s going to be super limited. ---
