Kirby's Air Grind is a Mini-game in Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland. It replaces the mini-game Egg Catcher from Kirby's Adventure.

Game

The four Kirbys grind rainbow colored rails while riding the Warpstar. 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 first Kirby to cross the finish line wins.

This minigame 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 mini-game.
