'''Kirby's Air Grind''' is a [[sub-game]] in ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]''. It replaces the sub-game [[Egg Catcher]] from ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''.
==Game==
The four [[Kirby (species)|Kirbys]] grind rainbow colored rails while riding the [[Warp Star]]. By pressing Button A Kirby will grind the rail and gain speed. [[Kirby]] can't grind the black and spiky parts of the rail and if he tries he will lose speed instead. If Kirby starts grinding at the end of a spike strip with correct timing, he will gain a speed boost - the amount depending on timing accuracy. The rate meter tracks how much the player makes contact with rails in a single race, not including black rails. "Rate" has no precedence in determining the winner in the event of a tie.

==Trivia==
*This sub-game is the spiritual predecessor to ''[[Kirby Air Ride]]''. Revamped music from this sub-game features as background music for the Rowdy Charge Tank event in [[Air Ride]].
*[[Kirby's Wave Ride]] in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'' appears to be derived from this sub-game.
*The music for this sub-game is a remix of [[Green Greens]]'s music from ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''.
