Glide Ramps are introduced in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as part of the gliding function, where they are used in numerous courses throughout the game. As well as being used in all of the new courses except for [[3DS Rosalina's Ice World|Rosalina's Ice World]], Glide Ramps are also used in most of the retro courses, replacing longer jumps and [[Cannon (Mario Kart series)|cannons]] and also to replace or provide alternative routes for some sections of the courses. Some sections are also entirely replaced with a Glide Ramp, such as the bouncing net at the end of {{classic link|Wii|Maple Treeway}}. The only retro courses that do not use Glide Ramps are {{classic link|N64|Luigi Raceway}}, {{classic link|GCN|Daisy Cruiser}}, and {{classic link|SNES|Rainbow Road}}. Although most Glide Ramps remain in the same position, [[3DS Toad Circuit|Toad Circuit]] and {{classic link|GBA|Bowser Castle 1}} have a Glide Ramp that emerges from the ground after an amount of time, usually after the first lap. Additionally, the [[Music Bash|Bouncing Note]] section in [[3DS Music Park|Music Park]] has a pair of ramps that change position every so often, leaving just a lower regular white ramp when they change height and side. The Glide Ramp will flash before changing, but can still be glided from when it is flashing. As well as the ramps, one of the [[Mushroom Trampoline]]s in {{classic link|Wii|Mushroom Gorge}} has now been recolored blue and functions the same way as a ramp, as once the player bounces off it, the Glider will be deployed and the player can glide over the remainder of the cave instead of bouncing over more mushrooms. | Glide Ramps are introduced in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as part of the gliding function, where they are used in numerous courses throughout the game.

Glide Ramps reappear in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', where they serve the same purpose as in ''Mario Kart 7''. They are integrated into all of the new courses except [[Toad Harbor]], [[Excitebike Arena]], [[Dragon Driftway]], and [[Mute City]]. They use the same design from ''Mario Kart 7'', except in [[Twisted Mansion]], where they use a cyan Dash Panel design. The ramps are also included in much of the retro courses, such as replacing the original boosted ramp in {{classic link|N64|Royal Raceway}} and being on the [[dash panel ramp truck]] in {{classic link|N64|Toad's Turnpike}}. The rising Glide Ramp returns in {{classic link|3DS|Toad Circuit}}, [[Merry Mountain]], and {{classic link|Tour|Rome Avanti}}, and the special lowering twin Glide Ramps return in {{classic link|3DS|Music Park}} and {{classic link|DS|Tick-Tock Clock}}; the lowered Glide Ramp becomes black in this game. In courses where the layout changes between laps, Glide Ramps can appear in a lap where it was not previously; this happens in {{classic link|Tour|Paris Promenade}}, {{classic link|Tour|Sydney Sprint}}, {{classic link|Tour|Berlin Byways}}, {{classic link|DS|Peach Gardens}}, and {{classic link|Tour|Singapore Speedway}}. | Glide Ramps reappear in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', where they serve the same purpose as in ''Mario Kart 7''.
