Zip Tracks are objects that appear inSuper Mario Bros. Wonder. They appear as blocky platforms in varying widths with white chevrons moving along their front. When a player, item, or enemy touches a Zip Track, it is immediately launched in the direction indicated by the chevrons, similarly to aDash Panel. When hit from below, Zip Tracks can be grabbed on to and ridden in the direction indicated.Jumping while grabbing from below causes the player to fall back off. Zip Tracks can also be oriented vertically, and they carry the player and objects up or down walls as indicated.
Most Zip Tracks are colored orange, but other colorations appear. Blue Zip Tracks are seen in places where contact is discouraged and would lose progress, such asBadge Challenge Wall-Climb Jump II. Red and blue Zip Tracks appear in pairs inColor-Switch Dungeon, where after the player hits anON/OFF Switch, these Zip Tracks swap colors and direction, akin toConveyor Belts inSuper Mario Maker 2.
When a player steps on a Zip Track, their respective controller plays a looping sound as the player dashes, using theJoy-Con or thePro Controller's vibration function.Marimba Blocks also trigger sounds on the controller when stepped on.
