Dash Panels, named '''Zippers''',<ref> | [[File:SMK Dash Panel Screenshot.png|thumb|left|[[Mario]] driving near a Zipper in Bowser Castle 1 from ''Super Mario Kart'']] | ||
Dash Panels, named '''Zippers''',<ref>''Super Mario Kart'' Instruction Booklet. Page 12.</ref> first appear in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', where they appear as yellow arrows. They appear in [[Bowser Castle 1]], [[SNES Mario Circuit 2|Mario Circuit 2]], [[SNES Ghost Valley 2|Ghost Valley 2]], [[Bowser Castle 2]], [[SNES Mario Circuit 3|Mario Circuit 3]], [[Bowser Castle 3]] and [[Ghost Valley 3]]. In Mario Circuit 2, Zippers are used to make a large jump. In the [[Virtual Console]] release, they are named '''Speed Pads'''.<ref>''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' Wii Virtual Console Manual.

They appear as scrolling yellow and red arrows, and they are used to launch racers over large gaps similarly to [[cannon]]s in later games. They are larger than in ''Super Mario Kart''. Ramps that look like Dash Zones appear in [[N64 Koopa Troopa Beach|Koopa Troopa Beach]]. | ||

They act the same as they did in ''Super Mario Kart'' and are often used to make large jumps off ramps, such as in [[GBA Ribbon Road|Ribbon Road]]. With the exception of [[SNES Mario Circuit 2|Mario Circuit 2]], all [[Extra Cup|extra courses]] had their Speed Strips removed. | ||

Dash Panels, also named '''Rainbow Ramps''',<ref>''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' ''Nintendo Power'' Player's Guide. Page 59.</ref> reappear in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', where they are designed as rainbow-colored panels and are now rectangle-shaped. In this game, Dash Panels are more powerful, being as fast as a [[Mushroom]]. | |||

Zippers<ref>''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'' instruction booklet. Page 11.</ref><ref> Leung, Jason, Pelland, Scott and Shinoda, Paul. ''Diddy Kong Racing'' Official Nintendo Player's Guide. Pg. 10</ref> appear in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'', which act similarly to how they act in the ''Mario Kart'' series. There are three variants of Zippers, one for each vehicle. Each vehicle's Zipper has a different appearance and are positioned based on the associated terrain. Car Zippers are arrow-shaped panels placed on the ground, the Hovercraft variant is shaped like a triangle and located on bodies of water, and the Plane variant is ring-shaped and is located in the air. Initially, all these Zippers come in red and yellow. The Hovercraft and Plane variants are slightly transparent and animated, whereas the Car variant is opaque and static. | |||
Any vehicle can use any Zipper, though it is difficult and counterproductive for a Car to even touch a Hovercraft or Plane Zipper, whereas a Plane can easily reach any of them, and a Hovercraft is in the middle. Many Hovercraft and Plane Zippers do not appear if no player has selected the matching vehicle, while most Car Zippers are always present. | |||
Like other speed boosts in the game, if the player lets go of the {{button|n64|A}} button before it is activated, they receive a bigger speed boost with green fire and rainbow-colored smoke. | |||

Dash Panels, named '''dash zones''', reappear in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' in the [[minigame]] [[Speeding Bullets]] | [[File:MP9 4-Player Snow Go.png|left|thumb|200px|A dash ramp in Snow Go]] | ||
Dash Panels, named '''dash zones''', reappear in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' in the [[minigame]] [[Speeding Bullets]]. They are used to accelerate the character's speed when they are used. They are orange and are in the shape of an arrow. In Time Attack mode, the bonus challenge for Speeding Bullets is to not miss a single dash zone. The introduction cutscene for the minigame shows a player going over a dash zone. A dash zone that is named a '''dash ramp''' also appears in [[Snow Go]] which sends the player over thick snow. In Time Attack mode, the bonus challenge is to use it in all ten laps. | |||

Dash Panels reappear in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', where they are present in two minigames: [[Gyro for the Gold]] and [[Mr. Blizzard's Snow Slalom]]. In the former, they are used to cross gaps between the platforms of the obstacle course, and have arrows which move on the Dash Panels quickly. In the latter, they look similar to Dash Panels in ''Mario Kart 7'' and are used to launch the player's snowball at [[Mr. Blizzard]]. | Dash Panels reappear in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', where they are present in two minigames: [[Gyro for the Gold]] and [[Mr. Blizzard's Snow Slalom]].

Dash Panels reappear in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', where flat Dash Panels appear in the River Survival mode on the water's surface, boosting the raft forwards when run over. Dash Panels on ramps also appear, which are used to reach minigame balloons and [[+ Clock]]s suspended in the air. The flat Dash Panels are orange and yellow, while the Dash Panels on ramps are red and yellow. Dash Panels also appear with their ''Mario Kart 8'' appearance in the minigame [[Barreling Along]], where they boost players forwards. | Dash Panels reappear in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', where flat Dash Panels appear in the River Survival mode on the water's surface, boosting the raft forwards when run over.

Dash Panels reappear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. They are square-shaped and feature a pixelated diamond animation. When character runs on it, it will blink and will increase their speed. Characters cannot stop running or crouch and cannot make large changes in direction without being in the air during a speed boost. All characters run at the same speed when boosted. Jumping will slow boosted characters down slightly, especially if an ability such as floating is used. Characters will immediately return to full speed upon landing if the boost has not run out. | Dash Panels reappear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''.

Unlike in ''Mario Golf: World Tour'', the Dash Panels only affect characters dashing in Speed Golf or Battle Golf, and not golf balls. | |||
