Hop (move)

The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

The ability to Hop is exclusive to Karts. It has been used in all of the Mario Kart Series games, excluding Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. Drivers can use this to their advantage, as it chains to a Drift and Hops over small gaps. All drivers can use the Hop by pressing R, and Hopping in Mario Kart 64 can access huge shortcuts. (These shortcuts are the most likely reason for Nintendo taking the Hop out of Mario Kart: Double Dash!.)
