A '''Spring Jump''' is a move in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' and its [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|remake for the Nintendo Switch]]. In this game, if [[Mario]] lands on a [[Trampoline|Spring]], he only bounces slightly. If the player presses {{button|GBA|A}} just as Mario lands on a spring he instead does a high bounce from the spring. This can be used to reach high platforms and collect items. When [[Mini-Mario]]s are trying to reach Mario and walk into a spring, they automatically jump onto the spring and perform the Spring Jump.

Many other games in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise have Trampolines that bounce the player up a short distance by default but can be made to bounce the player higher through taking a specific action. However, none of these have been called a Spring Jump directly. This includes similar actions from the predecessor to ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'',  ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' for the [[Game Boy]], and the further games of the [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series]]. ''[[Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' does name its version of doing a high jump off a trampoline, as either "Super High Jump" or "Super Jump", depending on the version.<ref>''Donkey Kong Junior'' [[media:DKJ Instruction Card.jpg|instruction card]]</ref><ref>Instruction manual for the Coleco Adam port.</ref>
