Banana Wingtip
Banana Wingtip from Mario Kart Tour
Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Banana Wingtip is a High-End glider in Mario Kart Tour. Introduced in the Jungle Tour, it is the signature glider of Funky Kong. It is a glider with the BaNaNa Boy logo emblazoned on the top and yellow wings on each side, with the driver's emblem located on both of them. It also bears a slight resemblance to the Wild Wing's spoiler. The Banana Wingtip increases the chances of getting Bananas from Item Boxes and raises the amount of points awarded for successfully landing hits with them.

A Blooper-themed variant known as the Blooper Wingtip was introduced in the Marine Tour, and a Penguin-themed counterpart known as the Penguin Wingtip was introduced in the Berlin Tour. Both gliders share the High-End classification.
