Editing Glider

[[File:MarioGlider3DS.png|thumb|200px|Mario gliding in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'']]
A '''glider''' is a customization feature used in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. After a racer drives over a [[Glide Ramp]], their selected glider automatically deploys overhead, allowing them to float across gaps or over a portion of the track. The selected glider slightly affects the weight and acceleration stats, as well as the hidden air speed and air handling stats.

In ''[[Mario Kart World]]'', gliders are replaced by wings that eject from the sides of the kart, but their function is largely the same.<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=April 2, 2025|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pE23YTYEZM|title=Mario Kart World – Nintendo Direct {{!}} Nintendo Switch 2|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=April 4, 2025}}</ref>

==History==
===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Mario Kart 7''====
Gliders first appear in ''Mario Kart 7''. They may affect the weight or acceleration, or even the air speed and air handling. If players brake or get hit with an item while gliding, the glider retracts and the player falls to the ground.

The glider is utilized in the majority of racecourses in the game.

====''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX''====
In the ''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' series, gliders first appear in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]''. They serve the same purpose as in ''Mario Kart 7''. The glider is decided depending on the [[Kart]] chosen.

Half of the courses make use of the glider in this game.

====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
Gliding returns in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', and functions exactly like it did in ''Mario Kart 7'', though the glider can no longer be retracted. All gliders from ''Mario Kart 7'' return except the Beast Glider and the Swooper.

Much like in ''Mario Kart 7'', the majority of racecourses in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' utilize the glider. There is also a sponsor in the game called [[Dream Gliders]], which presumably provides the Gliders for the racers.

====''Mario Kart Tour''====
Gliders make their reappearance in the mobile installment ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', functioning similarly to how they worked in ''Mario Kart 7'', though parts are now acquired randomly through Pipes, which cost rubies. In addition, Gliders are sorted into three rarities: Normal, Super, and High-End, with the last ones being rarer, and overall being more powerful.
