Seesaw

Seesaws are objects that can be placed in levels in Super Mario Maker 2. They are orange platforms that tilt left or right to one side when the player or an enemy walks on them. Like normal Lifts, their length can be changed and they can be placed on tracks. In the Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, and Super Mario World styles, they appear to be metallic, but in the New Super Mario Bros. U style, they appear to be wooden.

In all styles where they are available, Seesaws can be abruptly tilted when a Thwomp falls on one side, causing any object on the other side, including any playable characters, to be thrown high into the air. This can also be achieved if a player ground pounds on the Seesaw (requiring a Dry Bones Shell or big Goomba's Shoe to do so in the Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros. 3 styles). Furthermore, Bowser can perform this as well in the Super Mario Bros. 3 style using his downward slam attack.

Some course elements have different weights. Twisters weigh nothing, while Spiny Shells, Buzzy Shells, Dry Bones Shells, Beach Koopas, empty Koopa Shells, and disabled Koopas weigh half a normal object. All players, regardless of their power-ups, weigh the same. Munchers, Thwomps, Wigglers, Bill Blasters, Cannons, Goomba's Shoes, Boom Boom, Bowser Jr., Bowser, Big Mushrooms, 10-Coins, and their variants weigh double. In addition, applying the Super Mushroom modifier to a course element doubles its weight.
