The Weight[1] (おもり[2] Omori?) is an object that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a metal weight that pulls its user down from midair.
Description[]
The Weight is a gray metal weight in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid and is a little larger than half of Tails' height. It has a handle on top and the text "10t" written on the front. Given the text written on it, the Weight is implied to weigh ten tons.
Overview[]
In gameplay, the player can latch onto the Weight with Tails' Boomering by pressing 
/
and can let go of it by pressing / again. When latched onto the Weight, it will force the player to slowly drag it along the ground, reducing the speed of Tails' forward movements. If the Weight is dragged over a ledge and falls down, Tails is pulled down with it. This is a good way to quickly descend from midair.
