A Swirlwind is an obstacle, which appears in the Game Boy game, Donkey Kong Land. They first appear in Snake Charmer's Challenge, but only for a brief moment. However, they are found again in the level, Swirlwind Storm, and are the main obstacles of the stage.
Swirlwinds are not like ordinary obstacles from the game. These objects begin to move as soon as the Kongs jump on them. They will continue to follow the heroes throughout the level, until it falls into a hole or abyss. With Swirlwinds, the Kongs can collect items high in the air, and even get into Bonus Levels with their aid. They can also reach high ledges or ropes with these special tires. Although Swirlwinds help the monkeys, they can also damage them. If one of the heroes touch the side of them, they'll get damaged easily. They may also cause the Kongs to fall in an abyss if they aren't careful when it drops down.
