12. Chain Jump-Tricks To Stack Boosts

Speaking of environmental objects that trigger boosts, you can chain multiple ones together, just barely touching the ground as you go.

Literally hit R off one part of the world and fly through the air, angle yourself and hit R once again to chain-boost. Only certain courses play into this mentality, but don't worry about the physics of hurtling your character directly down onto an incline - Mario Kart's trick-boost overrides what would kill your momentum in any other racer.

This can be done an infinite amount of times (environment permitting), and if you're looking for somewhere to practice, load up the Excitebike course - it's repeated angular jumps are perfectly placed to combine in the 150cc or 200cc speed classes.
