Eggshell Glider
The Eggshell Glider from Mario Kart Tour
Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Eggshell Glider is a Super glider in Mario Kart Tour. Added in the 2020 Yoshi Tour, it resembles the top part of the shell of a Yoshi's Egg. The Eggshell Glider provides better chances of getting Green Shells from Item Boxes and increases the number of points earned for landing hits with Green Shells.

The glider has two High-End variants: an Easter-themed variant named the Bright Glider, and a golden variant known as the Gold Eggshell Glider that debuted in the 2020 and 2022 Yoshi Tours respectively.
