Snowboarding Shy Guys are a variant of Shy Guys encountered in a few snowy courses in the Mario Kart series. They first appear in Mario Kart Wii.

Description[]

Snowboarding Shy Guys snowboard across the half-pipe area of a course, performing tricks as they go up a ramp. If a racer drives into one a Snowboarding Shy Guy, they briefly spin out. A Snowboarding Shy Guy can be taken out from an offensive item or by touching it while invincible.

Here, they are named Shy Guy Snowboarders in the Prima guide. They are encountered in the last portion of DK Summit, just before the finish line.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[]

Shy Guy Snowboarders can be seen at Mount Wario, in the background of the slalom and mogul portions in the final section. They are not encountered as obstacles, unlike DK Summit. In addition, a stamp of a Shy Guy Snowboarder can be obtained in the original Mario Kart 8 by winning a Time Trial race against Mount Wario's Staff Ghost.

Mario Kart Tour[]

Since this game, they have been renamed to Snowboarding Shy Guys. They return in DK Summit, having the same role as before.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass[]

Just as in Mario Kart Tour, Snowboarding Shy Guys are encountered in DK Summit, retaining their role once more.
