Giant Skewer Tower

Giant Skewer Tower, or , is the Tower course of Sparkling Waters in New Super Mario Bros. U. Similarly to World 3-Castle of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, this is a water course filled with spiked pillars. Completing the Tower unlocks a cutscene of Peach's Castle being completing shrouded in Kamek's tornado. However, the cutscene will not play if Freezing Rain Tower is completed beforehand.

Layout
The first part of the Tower is underwater, and the most prominent obstacle are giant spiked pillars which thrust forward periodically. Dry Bones are the only enemies in the Tower.

Boom Boom is the boss of the tower. Kamek will fly in and give Boom Boom the ability to jump. Unlike in the second round, however, Boom Boom keeps his spin attack even after getting stomped on.
