However, the Jaxi's speed makes it difficult to control, with the Jaxi sliding whenever the player makes a turn, though the player can turn quickly by braking while turning. Any breakable objects or small enemies the Jaxi runs into will be knocked over or defeated. Mario can also ride Jaxis safely over poisoned water.[2] If the player falls down a pit while riding a Jaxi, the Jaxi will return to the spot the player found it.[1]
