My only spinner at the moment is a check.in size. Navigating an airport with that and a laptop on wheels, I just stick the laptop on the top of the spinner and off I go. Works great!

For bumps and thresholds, I don't stop, just let the case lag behind me and pull it over on two wheels then raise it back up on four wheels and keep going.

Love it!
