Antigravity Panel: Difference between revisions

'''Antigravity Panels'''<ref>Musa, Alexander (May 30, 2014). ''Mario Kart 8'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 9. ''Prima Games''. Retrieved January 29, 2018.</ref> are objects that appear in courses in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. They are blue panels bearing a circle pattern that appear on the track to mark the beginning of an [[anti-gravity]] section, causing any racers that drive over them to enter anti-gravity mode. Mechanically, whether or not anti-gravity is activated depends on where the racer is on the course, so the Antigravity Panels only serve as visual indicators of when anti-gravity sections begin. They do not appear in courses that take place entirely in anti-gravity such as {{classic-link|GCN|Baby Park}}, but otherwise always appear at the start of an anti-gravity section (except in {{classic-link|3DS|Rainbow Road}}, where anti-gravity is activated as the racers fall on the moon). An Antigravity Panel is also used to mark the end of the anti-gravity section in {{classic-link|GBA|Boo Lake}}, but not in any  other race courses, in which anti-gravity will activate if a racer goes backwards into an anti-gravity section without the need of an Antigravity Panel. The [[Battle Mode|battle]] course [[Battle Stadium]] features Antigravity Panels at both ends of its anti-gravity section. Some characters can audibly react to the activation of anti-gravity upon driving over an Antigravity Panel.
