Leaf pile

Leaf piles are objects that appear in the Mario Kart Wii course Maple Treeway, and its remakes in Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart Tour, and also in the autumn variation of the Mario Kart 8 course Animal Crossing. They act similarly to crates, disappearing when hit by an item or racer and commonly dispensing Bananas and coins, commonly dispensing Mushrooms, and occasionally dispensing Super Stars. They also reappear after a short amount of time, and remain in their usual locations during time trials, although they do not dispense any items. Unlike crates, leaf piles do not slow racers down when they hit them.
