The Tanooki Parafoil is a High-End glider that appears in Mario Kart Tour. It was introduced in the 2021 Autumn Tour and is the signature glider of Tanooki Mario. In a similar fashion to the Cat Parafoil, the Tanooki Parafoil is based on the Parafoil, with a color scheme based on Tanooki Mario and Tanooki Rosalina, as well as Tanooki ears and a tail attached to it. Using Mushrooms grants more points when using this glider.

A gold colored variant named the Gold Tanooki Parafoil debuts alongside the Tanooki Parafoil in the 2021 Autumn Tour and is also classified as a High-End glider.

Availability

Starting with the Battle Tour, Tanooki Parafoil is available in regular tour pipes, including the All-Clear Pipe. However, it is not currently a part of the Daily Selects lineup.
