Mario Kart 64/Koopa Troopa Beach



Koopa Troopa Beach is a mostly easy track with many jumps and a tunnel that lets you skip a part of the track. To reach it, you must to build up a good speed and hit the ramp just in the right angle. If your going too slow or jump too left or right, you will hit the wall and lose time.

The Cave
If you follow the course up until you reach the end of the row of ramps, you will see a narrow ramp that leads up to an opening in the mountain. By using either a Mushroom or a Star while going up the ramp, you are able to make the jump and land inside the opening to the cave. Using the cave shortcut cuts off a significant amount portion of the course.



Water Path
If you don't have a Mushroom or Star, there's another shortcut you can use. After starting the course, drive until you reach the first ramp. Veer to your right and drive around the outside of the overhang. You will see a very narrow path that takes you straight across to the other side of the crescent beach. If you decide to take this route, beware of crabs that litter the path.
