Metal (Top Ride course)

Metal is a Top Ride course in Kirby Air Ride.

About
Possibly the most hazardous Top Ride course. These hazards are mostly composed of gears, which throughout the race stop and change directions. The players must first go through rotating barriers (A Checklist box requires you to not hit one during one race). Then they ride over a giant, which can either quicken or slow down the player, depending on which direction its going. On the left side of the track are big fans which the player can only stop by pressing the corresponding color. On the home stretch are three gears which, like the big gear, can either help or hinder the player, depending on which the gear is going. It is the only course that has a remix for both its normal and alternate soundtrack. Its normal music is a remix of the Cavius music, and its alternate music is the Mint Leaf theme from Kirby's Dream Land.
