I found this weird square that rolls down hills better than a regular square. Thinking of trying to use it to move heavy objects.

so, what, you roll it down the hill and try to aim for the object and the momentum knocks the object forward? seems insane

let's use a little common sense please. you take an elastic band and affix one end to the regular square and one end to the weird rolling square. you then roll both down a hill. the differential in rolling speeds means that the rubber band will stretch out as the two roll down the hill. the stored energy in the elastic band can then be used to help move heavy objects.
