Mario Kart DS/Shroom Ridge

Shroom ridge is the fourth and final course in the Flower Cup. It is similar to Mushroom Bridge from Double Dash. It is a medium-to-hard course and may take one or two tries to get a feel for the track. It is great course to improve your power sliding skills.

Hazards
One of the hazards is the coming and going of traffic. When hit by either a car or bus you will flip into the air before falling back to the track. Another hazard is the cliff at the beginning of the track and at the end.

Shortcuts
There is one shortcut for this track.


 * 1) In the area leading up to the tunnel, if you have two mushrooms you can turn left into the field and boost your way across.  This shortcut takes off the dogleg in the backstretch.

Strategies
One strategy is to try to power slide at every turn for mini-turbos. Also it is good to snake if you are skilled enough to dodge the traffic whilst doing so. Also, if you stay on the right side of the road, there is an occasional Item Box floating around.
