A '''Spin Boost''' (known as a '''Spin Turbo''' in the British English version) is a driving technique used and introduced in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. The technique is exclusive in [[anti-gravity]] segments in the tracks. When two or more players collide with each other, all players who made contact receive a speed boost, unlike in normal gravity sections where players simply collide with each other. Players can also receive Spin Boosts from driving through [[Spin Boost Pillar]]s in certain tracks.
A '''Spin Boost''' (known as a '''Spin Turbo''' in the British English versions) is a driving technique in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. The technique can only be used in [[anti-gravity]]. When drivers in anti-gravity mode collide with each other, they each perform a Spin Boost, which causes them to spin with a blue circle effect around themselves and gain a speed boost, as well as propelling them away from each other slightly.

Spin Boosting
Mario, Bowser, and Luigi Spin Boosting with each other in Mario Kart 8

A Spin Boost (known as a Spin Turbo in the British English versions) is a driving technique in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The technique can only be used in anti-gravity. When drivers in anti-gravity mode collide with each other, they each perform a Spin Boost, which causes them to spin with a blue circle effect around themselves and gain a speed boost, as well as propelling them away from each other slightly. Drivers can also receive Spin Boosts from driving into Spin Boost Pillars.

  • Electronic manual bio: "Colliding with an opponent in an antigravity zone will cause you to bounce away from each other, giving you both a slight speed boost."
