Items in Spirit Tracks

Whirlwind


The Whirlwind seems to be an item that is similar to the Gust Jar in use and the Deku Leaf in appearance. It is used to blow certain objects, work different switches and stun different enemies.

Boomerang

 * Main Article: Boomerang

The boomerang is never used in the trailer for Spirit Tracks, but it is seen equipped, so it can be assumed as an item that will appear in Spirit Tracks. It is assumed that it will work the same as the boomerang did in Phantom Hourglass.

Whip
The whip is a brand new item to the series seen in the 2009 E3 trailer for Spirit Tracks. Link is seen killing a Yellow Chu-Chu with the whip and using the whip to swing across a gap, similar to the use of the Grappling Hook in The Wind Waker. In the 3rd trailer it was redesigned to look like a snake.

Spirit Flute

 * Main Article: Spirit Flute

A magical pan flute that is used to play songs taught to you before each temple to restore the missing tracks that lead to them. It is played by tapping one of six different pipes on the touch screen -to a given rhythm in time with a metronome- while at the same time blowing into the DS microphone. It was confirmed by Official Nintendo Magazine that this new instrument will be in Spirit Tracks.

Bow
A bow is used to fight one of the bosses. It is assumed to work the same as in PH.
