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 Island.

It is a desert valley area where the player races Tricky the Triceratops up a long, spiral shaped course. At the top, there is a Sphinx structure resembling a triceratops. Later on, it must be visited again for a rematch with Tricky. There is a shortcut part of the way up the mountain which cuts directly through to the other side and contains a zipper.

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