Use The Water In Koopa Kape

There are a number of places in Koopa Kape where the water actually speeds up your Kart. These include inside the tube after going down the waterfall and all the water leading up to the waterfall after the boost jump.

Do not go in the water on the last bend however, unless you have a boost or an item that allows you to go across slow terrains. See our post lower down for the items that let you do that.
