Recovery on mario kart wii

Question

I want to know if there is a way to recover faster when you get hit by any turtle shell or any other item.

I'm looking for techniques, but if there isn't any, i want to know if there are any characters that are least affected by items.

Answer 1

if you are gonna get hit by the red shells,shoot a banana or another shell behind you.   that would stop them  the best thing i can suggest is to prevent your self from getting hit.      

Answer 2

Well, you can recover from a fall by accelerating as soon as you land, but it is hard to recover from a turtle shell, especially on a hard part or from a blue shell. Try putting a banana behind you to stop it from happening or boost at the last second for a blue shell to miss.
