Charge jumps in Mario Kart World are drifts performed on straightaways that visually indicate speed boosts but may actually slow players down. Investigations by the community have shown that normal acceleration offers better performance. However, charge jumps serve useful purposes, allowing players to reach heights for grind rails and initiate wall rides. Following the game's launch with the Switch 2, Mario Kart World has been commercially successful and has led to various player explorations and findings regarding gameplay mechanics.
Charge jumps, which are essentially drifts done on straightaways instead of corners, come with all the same visual indicators of granting a speed boost as classic drifting, but it turns out that the technique may technically slow you down.
After intensive investigation from the Mario Kart community, fans have seemingly confirmed that normal acceleration on a straight is preferable to charge-jumping.
Charge jumps can still be useful as they provide access to certain things, such as getting up to the requisite height to grab a grind rail and helping to start wall rides.
Mario Kart World launched alongside the Switch 2 last month, and it has been a commercial success, inspiring a wealth of tips, tricks, and investigations.
