- This article is about the enemy inKirby Air Ride, and should not be confused withBalloon Bomb.
Balloon Bomber[1] is an enemy that appears inKirby Air Ride andKirby Air Riders. Its basic appearance is that of an elongated, "shark-finned" bombshell, bearing a skull mask, and is thought to be a bomb itself, although it rarely ever detonates. However, if a rider attacks it directly, it will recoil, flying away and — unlike most enemies — exploding after flying a short distance.
