'''Spike Bars''' are spiky obstacles that are similar to [[Fire Bar]]s but with small [[Spike Ball|spiked balls]] in place of [[fireball]]s. They usually can be destroyed with certain [[list of power-ups|power-up]] forms, whereas Fire Bars are completely indestructible. If characters come in contact with a Spike Bar, they take damage.

==History==
===''Wario Land: Shake It!''===
[[File:WLSI Launchpad Labyrinth spike bars.png|thumb|left|Spike poles in ''Wario Land: Shake It!'']]
In ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', Spike Bars, referred to as '''spike poles'''<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''Wario Land: Shake It!'' PRIMA Official Strategy Guide|page=166-169|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=September 22, 2008|language=en-us|isbn=978-0-7615-6113-2}}</ref> or '''spiky poles''',<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''Wario Land: Shake It!'' PRIMA Official Strategy Guide|page=96|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=September 22, 2008|language=en-us|isbn=978-0-7615-6113-2}}</ref> appear in [[level]]s that feature [[Rocket Bucket]]s, such as [[Airytale Castle]] and [[Launchpad Labyrinth]]. They extend out of a metallic pivot and start rotating around it the moment [[Wario]] mounts a Rocket Bucket, retracting when the vehicle is destroyed or abandoned. Spike poles appear with varying lengths, are indestructible, and are always surrounded with [[coin]]s, collectable by carefully navigating between the bars. If Wario flies a Rocket Bucket into a spike pole, the vehicle breaks, forcing him to plummet to solid ground. Since they appear only when a Rocket Bucket is in use, spike poles cannot hurt Wario directly.

===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====

Contrary to Fire Bars, which mostly appear in [[lava]]-themed levels, Spike Bars are found in a variety of level themes throughout ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. One or two Spike Bars can be found rotating around the same axis, but unlike Fire Bars, Spike Bars never rotate on their sides. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] makes contact with a Spike Bar in his [[Statue Mario|Statue form]], it breaks and releases several coins.

====''Super Mario Run''====
Spike Bars return in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' as obstacles in the level [[Spike Bar Jungle]]. This time, the spiked balls that make up the Spike Bar are redesigned to be green with yellow spikes, making them resemble the Spike Balls as held up by [[River Piranha Plant]]s in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', or the [[spike ball (seed)|spike ball]]s that appear in some courses of ''Super Mario 3D World''. In this game, the bar is also connected to a [[Hard Block]] with a cog. Albeit indestructible in this game, Spike Bars can be bounced on safely by [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]].
