In mario kart wii how do u aviod flying following blue shells?
slow down and let someone else get hit...if you time it right, you'll get 1st place back while the other kart is recovering.



but if you've already been targeted, you'll still get hit even if you drop place...so the best thing to do in that situation is to try get in a position so other karts get hit too with the little aftershock
Reply:Here's a site that has a good explanation of how to avoid the blue shells, it involves a mushroom power up.

It's under the section "Defend Against Blue Shells"



Hope this helps.
Reply:I don't think you can through pure skill. The only time I have avoided a flying blue shell is when I went through the ski lift on the snowboarding race just as the dreaded noise was coming through the controller. Pure luck!

Reply:You don't. There's no way to avoid blue shells. Just grit your teeth, take the hit, and keep going.
Reply:Getting more mushrooms.
