When entering a balloon elevator, you can push two buttons. 'Inflate' or 'Deflate'. The former pumps balloons full of air at the base of the elevator through small holes, pushing everyone upward. The latter produces needles through smaller holes.
For 50¢ extra per ride you can inflate with helium
instead of air, just to mix it up!
( Yes I know... The most novel part of this idea is buying something for 50¢)
