Quick Spin (also referred to asQuick-Spin^[1]) is a maneuver that can be performed inKirby Air Ride andKirby Air Riders. It is done when the player quickly taps left-to-right or right-to-left on the Control Stick. Doing so causesKirby or the respective player character to do a spinning move on theirAir Ride Machine, which slows the user down a little, but allows them to attack nearby enemies or opponents.

How muchdamage a Quick Spin will do depends on the Air Ride Machine used, the amount ofOffense Patches collected, or other factors such as the effect of a temporary Attack Up Patch. This move will also break boxes and destructible environmental objects.

InTop Ride, performing a Quick Spin will allow Kirby to shake off certain items he's picked up, if he'd rather have a different one. Furthermore, he can force his opponents to discard their items, too, if he collides with them during one.

Riders can still perform Quick Spins with machines like theHop Star, though they need to hold down the Boost Charge button before quickly tapping the Control Stick back-and-forth since the rider performs a different action by Quick Spinning normally.^[2]
