Editing Spin Turn

[[File:MK64 Spin-Turn.png|thumb|Artwork demonstrating the Spin Turn from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'']]
A '''Spin Turn''' (originally hyphenized as '''Spin-Turn'''<ref>[https://m1.nintendo.net/docvc/NUS/USA/NKTE/NKTE_E.pdf Instruction manual for ''Mario Kart 64'', page 15. Also present on the Operation Card.]</ref>) is a driving mechanic from the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, first introduced in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. When the accelerate and brake buttons are pressed while the [[kart]] is at a standstill, the kart can pivot around, creating very precise maneuvers. While it is not a common tactic to use while racing, in nonlinear arenas such as those used in Battle Mode, it is used to quickly change directions and aim items better.

''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' are the only mainline ''Mario Kart'' titles without the ability to Spin-Turn. Additionally, exclusively in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', a [[Mini-Turbo]] can be activated by using Slip Turns.

*'''Instruction manual:''' "'''''Use Spin-Turns Wisely!''' To change direction on narrow roads, or when you want to direct a Shell at an opponent, turn and press the A and B Buttons simultaneously, to do a Spin-Turn.''"

===''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''===
*'''Instruction manual:''' "'''''Master the Spin Turn!''' When you need to change direction in an instant, the Spin Turn is your best bet. Just hold the A and B Buttons and crank the steering wheel!''"
