Mario in the air after using the Spin Block (seen in the bottom-left corner).

Spin Blocks are blocks (actually platforms) that are found in New Super Mario Bros. When stepped on, Mario or Luigi will start spinning. Upon jumping, the character will fly high into the air, then glide back down slowly, allowing the brothers to travel longer distances. Pressing down while in the air caused Mario and Luigi to perform the Drill Spin, which has the ability to destroy Brick Blocks.
