'''Puzzle Plank Galaxy''' is the first galaxy of [[World 2 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)| World 2]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The galaxy features wooden planks floating in a blue sky, that [[Mario]] can stand on them as platforms. However, some sections of these platforms are cut by [[Grinder]]s that eventually remove a part of the plank that falls to the void. If the plumber stays on these platforms, he would lose a life, falling to the void. Some enemies such as [[Wiggler]]s and [[Mandibug]]s can be found here as well as the prominent appearance of the Grinders.

This planet has three pillars on it, each pounded on the other side of the planet. The player has to ground pound them again so he can access the Launch Star by using them. There are also [[Grinder]]s along the sides and some [[Octogoomba]]s scattered around the planet. There is also a [[Hungry Luma]] who wants 70 coins and a green [[Warp Pipe]] that leads into a room with a [[? Coin]], which will make many sets of 3 coins appear. If the player collects all coins before time runs out, he'll get a 1-Up. The player can also backflip and spin jump next to the [[Launch Star]] on the planet to activate it. This planet is also one of three planets that appear on the cover of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The launch star may be reached with Luigi by ground-pounding the red block once then back flipping up to the star.

*Oddly enough, once the [[Hungry Luma]] is fed 70 [[coin]]s, it will transform into three planets rather than one: the [[#Wood Island Planets|Wood Island Planets]] as well as [[#Bugaboom's Wooden Planet|Bugaboom's Wooden Planet]].
*In the E3 2009 trailer for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Comet Medal]] in this galaxy is actually not present. A [[1-Up Mushroom]] was on the platform instead.
