Speed Down

Speed Down is an Item Box obstacle that appears in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity. When obtained, it slows down the rider's Extreme Gear and prevents GP actions.

Description
In gameplay, when the player obtains Speed Down, a heavy ball is seen connected to his/her Extreme Gear with a chain. In this state, the player's speed is drastically reduced. In addition, Speed Down prevents the player from using Gravity Control and Gravity Dive. These effects only last for a limited amount of time, however.

The player can obtain Speed Down at random by touching one of the Item Boxes that lie scattered across the racing course.
