Truck

A surfboard vehicle is an obstacle that appears in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The vehicles appear on and, where they drive along the road with the rest of the traffic. They are absent during Battle Mode in Mario Kart 8. Like with cargo trucks, the player will spin out if they drive into them, having the same effect as driving over a Banana. Surfboard vehicles cannot be completely removed, but they can be briefly launched into the air if driven into when using a Super Star or Bullet Bill. They may also honk their horns at the player if hit. The player can also drive up the surfboard on the back of the vehicle and use it as a ramp, and they are able to perform a trick off the top of it, like with a dash panel ramp truck. The vehicles themselves are purple pickup trucks with Super Marine World, Waluigi Sea Bed, and stickers on them, while the surfboards are yellow with a red flame pattern at the top and a Red Shell Strike Equipment sticker on them.

Surfboard vehicles also appear in Mario Kart Tour on Berlin Byways 3, though like cars, they simply act as walls instead of knocking the player over when driven into.
