The Super Glider is the default glider in all games of the Mario Kart series starting with Mario Kart 7. It does not offer any stat boosts in any way, but like all the other gliders in the series, it enables racers to go airborne after driving off a Glide Ramp. Its color scheme is determined by the character who is using it.

History[edit]

Mario Kart series[edit]

Mario Kart 7[edit]

The Super Glider made its first appearance in Mario Kart 7 as the default glider. It features the emblem of the character on each side. It does not increase nor decrease any stats. It shares its stats with the Gold Glider and Beast Glider.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

The Super Glider returns as the default glider in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. This time, it features the emblem of the character in the center of the glider, instead of on both sides. It also has a stripe in the middle of the glider. The color of the stripe varies by character. Once again, it neither increases nor decreases any stats. It shares its stats with the Wario Wing, Waddle Wing, Plane Glider, Gold Glider, and Paper Glider. Mario's Super Glider appears on the logo of the sponsor Dream Gliders. In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, it only now shares stats with the Waddle Wing and Hylian Kite. Funky Kong is the only character in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe whose glider color does not match their main vehicle color, being red instead of light blue like in Mario Kart Tour, presumably to match the color of his surfboard.
