The '''Parafoil''' (originally known as the '''Paraglider''' in the American English version of ''Mario Kart 7'') is an unlockable glider part in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''.  It offers an acceleration boost, while hindering weight, but like all the other gliders, it allows [[kart]]s to go airborne for a brief time period. It also has the same stats as the [[Swooper (glider)|Swooper]].

In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', the Parafoil offers identical stats to its counterpart in ''Mario Kart 7''. The colors of the glider are slightly different however: it features a white center with yellow, pink, and blue colors and it lacks the emblem of the driver. Unlike in ''Mario Kart 7'', it is available from the start. A variant of the Parafoil is called the [[MKTV Parafoil]]. In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', CPU [[Mario]] uses this glider whenever he rides the P-Wing, [[Toad]] and the babies use it while riding the [[Pipe Frame]], [[Toadette ]] and [[Baby Peach]] use it while riding the [[Teddy Buggy]], and [[Dry Bones]] and [[Koopa Troopa]] use it with the [[Steel Driver]].

The Parafoil returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It uses the design from its appearance in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. It is classified as a Normal glider. Hitting other racers with [[Green Shell]]s yields more points when using this glider. The game introduces seven variants of the glider: the [[BBIA Parafoil]], [[Piranha Plant Parafoil]], [[Bob-omb Parafoil]], [[BaNaNa Parafoil]], [[? Block (glider)|? Block]], [[Soaring Jack]], and [[Luma Parafoil]], as well as a counterpart known as the [[Calico Parafoil]].
