Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Great Sail is a High-End glider in Mario Kart Tour. It was introduced in the Pirate Tour and it became the signature glider of Rosalina (Swimwear) in the Rosalina Tour and Mario (Swimwear) in the Summer Tour. It is a glider that resembles the sails of a pirate ship. The emblem is located on the bottom sails. The Great Sail increases the chances of getting Bananas from Item Boxes and the number of points awarded for landing hits with them. Two variants of this glider have been introduced: a black-sailed variant, named the Black Great Sail, debuted in the Peach vs. Daisy Tour and a starry pink-sailed variant, named the Starry Great Sail, debuted in the April–May 2021 Sydney Tour.

Availability

The Great Sail appears in regular tour pipes, including the All-Clear Pipe, and is a part of the Daily Selects lineup.
