- Pace your boosts according to your cornering ability. It’s no use going fast while plummeting to your death!
- Build up 200% speed, and you’ll be able to blow through hazards while boosting—but you’ll need space and a lot of gauge.
- Spend some time mastering Sliptiding, and the Rocket Sneaker will let you fly through all but the most technical courses! (See “Advanced Techniques”.)

- When moving fast enough, players will punt hazards away—but Sneaker boosts don’t inherently grant attacks or defenses.
- Put yourself in between a player with Rocket Sneakers and their destination, and they’ll often give you a helping hand with a forward bump. If you’re committed, you can even try engineering a bump through Tripwire…
- Items that inflict spinout waste the most Rocket Sneaker time. A banana’s reversed Directional Influence can turn high-speed steering into total ruin! (See “Advanced Techniques”.)
