The ears break off when people repeatedly bang on ONE ear. If you use the cdog tap-spin-tap-spin method, that shouldn't happen.

And all weight should be off the wheel. If you have resistance on the wheel, you risk breaking an ear. Having the wheel turn a bit while being hit keeps the stress off the ears but still loosens the spinner.
