When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] approaches an underwater ring, a small whirlpool can be seen inside it. [[Swim]]ming through one grants the character a brief speed boost. Underwater rings occur in the [[Sea Slide Galaxy]], [[Deep Dark Galaxy]], and [[Slimy Spring Galaxy]], typicall near a [[Koopa Shell]]. Passing through a ring while clinging to a shell makes Mario or Luigi spin as he boosts. | |||
Sets of similar-looking rings appear in missions where the player must chase [[Guppy]] in the Sea Slide Galaxy and Deep Dark Galaxy. These do not provide a speed boost, but they instead serve as the main objective during Guppy's missions. | Sets of similar-looking rings appear in missions where the player must chase [[Guppy]] in the Sea Slide Galaxy and Deep Dark Galaxy.
