A '''Spin Boost''' (known as a '''Spin Turbo''' in the British English versions) is a driving technique in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. The technique can be used only in [[anti-gravity]]. When drivers in anti-gravity mode collide with each other, they each perform a Spin Boost, causing them to spin with a blue circle effect around themselves and gain a speed boost, as well as propelling them away from each other slightly. Drivers can also receive Spin Boosts from driving into [[Spin Boost Pillar]]s.

'''Spin Boosting''' (known as '''Spin Turbo''' in Europe and Australia) is a driving technique used and introduced in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. The technique is exclusive in [[anti-gravity]] segments in the tracks. When two or more players collide with each other, all players who made contact receive a speed boost, unlike in normal gravity sections where players simply collide from each other. Players can also receive Spin Boosts from driving through Spin Boost pillars in the track such as the blue-colored wheels in [[Water Park]] or star-shaped formations in [[Electrodrome]]. Hideki Konno has stated that if two players collide 4 times in a row, they will fully [[Slipstreaming|slipstream]] at the same time.

Spin Boosting
Mario, Bowser, and Luigi spin-boosting with each other in Mario Kart 8

A Spin Boost (known as a Spin Turbo in the British English versions) is a driving technique in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The technique can be used only in anti-gravity. When drivers in anti-gravity mode collide with each other, they each perform a Spin Boost, causing them to spin with a blue circle effect around themselves and gain a speed boost, as well as propelling them away from each other slightly. Drivers can also receive Spin Boosts from driving into Spin Boost Pillars.
