The '''Spin Jump''' is a move usable in nearly every game in the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series. In each game the Spin Jump appears in, it serves the same purpose; it is used to cross large gaps that the brothers cannot cross normally with a regular [[jump]]. Mario and Luigi can also Spin Jump into a [[whirlwind]] to thrust themselves in any direction.

==History==
===''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''===
{{quote|It is possible to use this {{color|Spin Jump|red}} to jump across wide valleys and dangerous pits!|[[Starshade Bros.|Sergeant Starshade]]|''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''}}
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the Spin Jump is performed by having [[Mario]] as the rear brother using {{button|gba|start}}, switching to the move using the shoulder buttons ({{button|gba|L}} or {{button|gba|R}}), and pressing {{button|gba|A}}. Mario will [[jump]] on [[Luigi]]'s shoulders, and pressing {{button|gba|A}} again will make Mario and Luigi spin through the air to clear large gaps. The bros can also spin jump into [[whirlwind]]s to launch themselves in the direction inputted much faster and farther than normal. They can also spin into [[Waterspout|updrafts]] on the [[Seabed]] to launch themselves upwards, and spin around the steam of a cauldron in [[Joke's End]] to create a whirlwind needed to progress. To cancel the move before executing or during the move, the player must press {{button|gba|B}}. The move is taught by the [[Starshade Bros.]] in [[Stardust Fields]] along with the [[High Jump]] move for Luigi. The in-battle equivalent of this move is the [[Splash Bros.]] [[Bros. Attack]].

In [[Hoohoo Mountain]], [[Hoohooros]]'s minigame requires the player to utilize the move to get ten [[Hoohoo Spirit]]s in a set amount of time without touching the ground.

In the remake, because the player cannot switch between the bros manually using {{button|3ds|start}}, the player must select the move using the Touch Screen or by using {{button|3ds|L}} and {{button|3ds|R}}. Other than that, the move functions the same way.

===''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''===

The Spin Jump makes a reappearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''; this time, Luigi jumps on Mario's shoulders. Also, unlike in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', the duo can move while stacked before actually beginning the move, and the move lasts a bit longer. The move is taught by [[Toadsworth|the]] [[Toadsworth the Younger|Toadsworths]] (who call the move "Toadsworth Twist") after the first two [[Cobalt Star]] shards are stolen by [[Baby Bowser]] in the [[Vim Factory]] and before the player heads to [[Yoshi's Island (location)#Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time|Yoshi's Island]].

Later on in the game, the Toadsworths teach the [[Baby Spin]] after the player clears the [[Gritzy Caves]] and before they head for [[Thwomp Volcano]], which is executed by spin jumping into [[Baby Mario|the]] [[Baby Luigi|babies]] to send them up to much higher ledges.

===''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''===
The Spin Jump returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its 3DS remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', being generally similar, if not nearly identical in function, to the move from ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''. The only differences are that Mario once again jumps on Luigi's shoulders, and the brothers can Spin Jump into upward drafts that will send them up higher, similar to the ones in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''. The player learns the technique in the [[Flab Zone]] of [[Bowser's body]] once they come across a whirlwind in a certain area. It can be used to activate objects like drills, the bones in the [[Joint Tower]], as well as [[Kretin]]s. The Spin Jump is also used in the [[Nose Deck]] to knock pollen into Bowser's nasal mounds to turn them pink and hit large mounds once they appear.

===''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''===
The Spin Jump also returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', where it remains unchanged from its last appearance, with Mario on Luigi's shoulders. [[Big Massif]] and [[Lil' Massif]] teach the brothers this move during their first visit to [[Mount Pajamaja]], which is required to gain access to and free the first imprisoned Mega Pi'illo on the mountain, [[Phil]]. [[Kylie Koopa]]'s [[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team#Kylie Koopa's photo puzzles|photo puzzle]] of Mount Pajamaja depicts Mario and Luigi performing the move.

A [[Luiginoid Formation#Spin Jump|similar move]] can be used in the [[Dream World]] by [[Mario]] and [[Dreamy Luigi]] when the [[Luiginoid]]s form into a cone.
