'''Turbo Trainers''' (known as '''Running Shoes''' in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'') are a pair of white running shoes worn by [[Kazooie]] which allow her to use the [[Turbo Talon Trot]] and run at excessive speed for a limited time. Kazooie can also use the shoes to run across water in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.


==Location and uses==
Certain puzzles require the player to reach a goal within a constrained time limit, and these shoes will usually be found nearby. Depending on the length of the puzzle they are intended for, different pairs of shoes will last longer than others, although most last for around 10-15 seconds.
Turbo Trainers are shoes that, when worn by [[Kazooie]], allow her to use the [[Turbo Talon Trot]] and run at high speeds for a limited amount of time.


===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
Since the Turbo Talon Trot is based on the [[Talon Trot]] (actually, holding {{Z}} will keep a Talon Trot going once the shoes wear off), Kazooie may use these shoes either by herself or with [[Banjo]], but Banjo cannot use them on his own. (Obviously, Kazooie runs far faster without Banjo's extra weight, a fact that must be used to beat [[Mr. Fit]] at a footrace.)
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', their first appearance, [[Bottles]] teaches Kazooie how to use the Turbo Talon Trot in [[Gobi's Valley]]. When worn, the Turbo Trainers last for about 10 seconds. They can be also be worn by [[Crocodile Banjo]] in [[Bubblegloop Swamp]].


===''Banjo-Tooie''===
However, one pair in [[Bubblegloop Swamp]] may be worn by Crocodile Banjo during [[Mr. Vile]]'s mini-game, greatly increasing Banjo's speed and making winning a bit easier. The [[Twinkly Packing Challenge]] can also be used with these shoes.
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', the Turbo Trainers return and work much like they did in the previous game.  


===''Banjo-Pilot''===
The shoes may be a reference to Expresso of the Donkey Kong Country series, as they are similar in appearence.
In ''[[Banjo-Pilot]]'', Turbo Trainers appear as an item. When used, they give the racer a short speed boost.


===''Nuts & Bolts''===
[[de:Turbo Schuhe]]
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Kazooie mentions in the game's intro that she and [[Banjo]] would walk much faster if they had Turbo Trainers.

==Other appearances==
In ''[[rarewiki:Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise|Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise]]'', piñatas can wear the "Breegull Turbo Trainers."

*'''Manual description:''' "''Your mole friend will also brief you on these when the time comes, and as you'd expect, they grant Kazooie a few seconds of running speed well above her normal limits. You'll find that they're often used as part of a time-based puzzle...''"
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
*'''Manual description:''' "''Run like the wind and walk on water! Yes, it's true—this fabulous footwear gives Kazooie a burst of incredible speed, even allowing her to run across the surface of water when at top speed.''"
===''Banjo-Pilot''===
*'''Manual description:''' "''Gives the player a temporary top speed increase.''"
===''Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise''===
*'''Breegull Turbo Trainers description:''' "''Though these are only replicas, an original pair was said to have been able to increase the speed of the common Breegull, even when carrying daft Honey Bears (a close relation to the [[rarewiki:Fizzlybear|Fizzlybear]] - not native to these shores).''"
