A Super Spring[1] is a Spring that launches Mario (or Luigi) offscreen in Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, allowing the player to skip portions of a level. Usually Super Springs are green, but in the original, they are teal in World 7-3. (In Super Mario All-Stars, however, they are always green, even in World 7-3.) Mario falls back downward after a certain amount of time, so the player must be mindful to ensure that he does not fall into a hazard such as a pit. With the right timing, dashing before jumping onto a Super Spring also allows Mario to cover longer stretches of distance than normal. A Super Spring appears in World 2-1, World 3-1, World 3-3, World 7-3, World B-1, World B-3, World C-2, and World C-3, though the Super Mario All-Stars version replaces all of the Super Springs in World B with regular Springs.
