Tricky's Course

Tricky's Course is the first boss course in the game Diddy Kong Racing and its remake Diddy Kong Racing DS. It is located in Dino Domain, which itself is part of Timber's Island. The boss of this course is Tricky the Triceratops.

Tricky's Course is located in a desert valley. The player races Tricky the Triceratops up a tall, spiral-shaped mountain. There is a shortcut part of the way up the mountain which cuts directly through to the other side and contains a zipper. At the top, there is a Sphinx-like structure resembling a triceratops. Later in the game, Tricky's Course must be visited again for a rematch with Tricky.

In the Nintendo DS remake, the shortcut no longer exists although the course is generally easier. Also, there is a third challenge on the course involving the touch screen.
