'''Spine Coasters''' are rideable creatures made of bone used to aid [[Mario]] and company to pass through [[lava]] pits or [[poison (obstacle)|poison]] pools or to cross long gaps. As their name suggests, they move along a track in a similar fashion to a roller coaster. They first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''.

Spine Coasters later appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', where they are only found in {{world-link|8|bowser3d|World 8-Bowser: Part 2}} 2. Their design has changed into a broader, three-dimensional figure. The skull has protruding eye sockets and horns, and its maw is wide and blunt (as opposed to the narrow and pointed maw from the ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' design), to match with the coaster's wider figure. This alternate design for the skull somewhat resembles the thumb and bucket of an excavator, as well as the skull of a [[Dry Bones]].

*Whenever the Spine Coaster goes fast, especially on a slope, it lets out a dinosaur-like roar. The Bone Roller Coasters in ''Super Mario 3D Land'' make a different noise.
