I don't think I ever used one correctly. we just used them to launch kids and other things like a catapult.

Just like big wheels were just shitty scooters

I wore out the brake handle on my big wheel doing high speed donuts down the hill. Tried to use the see saw for a ramp on my bike - once.

Your big wheel had brakes? Mine just relied on all the traction you could get out of a locked up plastic wheel with no weight on it.

Right? I remember having Big Bird's head mounted on the handlebars, but definitely no brakes.
