The '''Drill Spin''' is a [[List of moves|move]] introduced in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' When used, the player character moves in a downward, drill-like spin, allowing them to break multiple [[Brick Block]]s in a row, as well as making their descent much faster while restricting horizontal movement.
The '''Drill Spin''' is a technique used by [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and the ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' games. The move causes Mario or Luigi to move in a downward, drill-like spin, which allows Mario or Luigi to break multiple [[Brick Block]]s in a row. It also makes Mario or Luigi's descent much faster, though it restricts his horizontal movement.
