Mario Kart 8 players have discovered a new technique for maintaining much-needed speed throughout races. The new move is called Fire Hopping and basically allows players to maintain a speed boost via hopping. Fire Hopping works on everything except inner drifting bikes. Reddit user, KaiserYoshi, explains how it works “Apparently, you lose speed faster when in contact with the ground, so jumping repeatedly at the end of a boost will keep you going slightly faster for a slightly longer time.” Some gamers appear to be embracing it while others are calling on Nintendo to deliver a patch.
