Overview

Sky Courtyard is a custom track created by Strobenz. It consists of a garden flying above the Popocatépetl volcano. During the early stages of this track, the author discovered that it was possible for the off-road to be trickable, which is a rather odd and unused feature in the original game (yet the final version of this track does not use this feature, either). It was after this discovery that he and Vulcanus2 set out to understand the basic functionality of what were later known as KCL type A flags, and the track was then used mainly for testing purposes.

Four years later, the author released Super Sky Courtyard to improve upon this track's theme.
