'''Underwater rings''' are objects in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Underwater rings are orange and yellow, with red outer rims. In the [[Prima Games]] guidebook for ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', they are referred to as "'''zipper gates'''."<ref>{{cite|author=Brown, Catherine|title=''Super Mario Galaxy 2: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|location=Roseville|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=2010|page=239|isbn=978-0-30746-907-6}}</ref> 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]], typically near a [[Koopa Shell]]. Passing through a ring while clinging to a shell makes Mario or Luigi spin as he boosts.

[https://archive.org/details/nintendo_guidebooks/Super%20Mario%20Galaxy%202%20Prima%20Official%20Guide Archived] in 2020 on the ''[https://archive.org/ Internet Archive]''. ISBN 0307469077. Published 23 May 2010. Accessed 16 Jun 2022.</ref> are underwater objects that [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] can interact with in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are colored orange and off-white, with red outer rims. When the player approaches a ring, a small whirlpool can be seen within the inside of the ring. [[Swim]]ming through one will grant the player a brief speed boost. Rings can be found in the [[Sea Slide Galaxy]], [[Deep Dark Galaxy]], and [[Slimy Spring Galaxy]], usually alongside [[Green Shell]]s or [[Red Shell]]s. Passing through a ring while riding a shell will make Mario or Luigi spin as he is boosted forward.  


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.
