Blooper Surfing Safari

Blooper Surfing Safari is the second episode of Ricco Harbor in Super Mario Sunshine. The objective is to use Blooper Racers to complete a racecourse.

Layout
During this mission, a pier will be placed to the right of the player's starting position, which contains the Pianta Big Daddy and his Blooper Racers. The player needs to use a Blooper Racer to enter a cave underneath the plaza (where Gooper Blooper was fought in the last episode), as the cave entrance is surrounded by ink, making entering the cave difficult. Once the player enters the cave, they will be brought to a racecourse.

Once the player lands in the racecourse, the Pianta there will challenge the player to race a lap of the racecourse in under forty-five seconds. The path of the race is a large road filled with water, so the player needs to use one of the Blooper Racers to complete the challenge. However, the course has many obstacles on it and crashing into one or the surrounding walls will make the player lose a life and have to start over. Obstacles include stationary and moving blocks, spikes, and spinning walls. If the player makes it to the goal in under forty-five seconds, they will be rewarded with a Shine Sprite.

Blooper-Surfing Sequel
The player can obtain another Shine Sprite during this episode by going through the course once more. However, this time the player needs to complete the course in under forty seconds. Along with avoiding the previous obstacles, the player has to jump over the two walls near the end of the course in order to finish in time. If the player reaches the goal in forty seconds or less, another Shine Sprite will be rewarded.
