He smiles and races her fully again now “It’s either of the left shoulder buttons” He jumps over a ramp, getting a small boost, then drifting around a curve, which also builds up a boost for him.
“Thanks.“ she smiles as she drops a banana while following him over the ramp, not doing any drifting. “Man you’re fast. Do I need to switch gears or something?“
He chuckles “Well, no, that’s what the R and ZR do. If you go over a ramp like that” he says it as he is going through one “And jump at the very last moment, you will get a boost when you land” and it does happen.
“Ooh. Nice.“ she smiles as she just keeps chasing after him “Hehe… I really need to learn all these things if I want to catch up to you.“ she giggles
“Hehe~ Yeah” He smiles “Now look, when you press and hold the jump button, after you land from the jump you will start drifting” He shows it as he approaches a curve and goes into drift, a moment later blue spark appear behind his Kart “As you drift you build up your boost, when it’s blue it’s a rather short one” then after even more they change to orange. He lets go of the button and receives a longish boost “but if it becomes orange, it’s significantly longer, but it’s not easy to get it. Depends on how sharp you are drifting and for how long. The sharper the turn, the less time for it to build up”
“Wow… There’s some serious mechanics behind this game…“ Kate replies, her jaw almost dropping, lookinga rt Pewny drive for a bit as she drives into a wall, then she looks back at her own screen. “Uhm… How do I drive backwards?“
“Press and hold B, similair as to most games, the brake is reverse” he nods “And well, there is one more trick” he currently has a banana in his item box, Kate can see it appearing behind his Kart and staying with him “If you hold the L or ZL, the item will appear behin you, ready to fire. It can serve as a shield that way, as any green and red shells would get destroyed on contact. WOn’t save you from Blue Shell however”
