__NOTOC__
==Introduction==
The four players (or one person) will be on snowboard(s), behind the gate, ready to go.


==Gameplay==
==Overview==
The objective is to get down the hill first. The player controls themselves by turning the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]. On ramps, if the player presses {{button|wii|A}}/{{button|wii|B}} and turn, they get a boost of speed when they land. There are obstacles along the way, such as [[Mr. Blizzard]]s, that can get in the way while going down. The player who crosses the finish line first wins.
The opening shows the player characters preparing as an audience of [[Goomba]]s cheer them on.


==Ending==
Players race down a hill on snowboards, turning the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] to steer, while avoiding obstacles like [[Mr. Blizzard]]s. Players can get a boost off of a ramp by pressing {{button|wii|A}} or {{button|wii|B}} and turning. The player who reaches the end first wins, but if all four players end at once or nobody wins by five minutes, it is a tie.
All four players are at the bottom, the winner standing slightly in front of the others, with their boards standing in the snow. The victor does the victory dance. If all four players cross the finish line at the same time or if five minutes pass, the players will be lined up by player order. The characters face the screen and perform their losing animations as "Tie" appears on the screen.
