What is this sorcery of which you speak?

During a boost you can hop a few times to prolong it slightly, not tried it myself yet but I think moving left and right a little during the hops optimizes it. Not as big of a thing as snaking at all but something for more serious/execution focused players to learn and get a slight edge.

Hope it doesn't become much of a thing. Hopefully it's too execution heavy for most people to bother with.

About 5 seconds per lap quicker on average.

That's quite significant!

It's not too hard to execute, but will take a good bit of practice to be consistent with. Especially effective when combined with heavy characters.

Not too many will use it online, especially in regional/worldwide, but those who take the time to practice it will win more frequently against those that don't bother to.

Some good races tonight. I chose the yoshi bike, and my god it handles so strange, its really hard to drift boost with. I think i will just stick with karts in the future. :p

I'll just leave this here

The bikes in general don't drift as well as the karts, but they corner sharper and have better base stats to make up for it.
