Bowser Monument

The Bowser Monument is a giant, flaming, living Bowser Statue in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It is the centerpiece of Bowser's Castle, and it is featured in the course's intro. As the racers drive past it, the Bowser Monument punches into the track, sending ripples through the track that cause it to continuously ripple. The track splits into two, with the Bowser Monument in the middle of them, and it alternatively punches each side of the track.
