Theme parks have different rides. Mostly they have roller coaster, Ferris wheel, Bump cars, Octopus and more. These rides are just some of the many rides and attractions in a typical amusement park. However today since the innovation of new technology most of the rides in a theme park world is also been innovated. One of the most striking rides in a theme park is the Octopus. Did you know that there are different types of the Octopus rides? Yes indeed! According to my research, there are about five different types of the Octopus rides:

• Eyerly Spider—this type of Octopus ride has six arms. It moves or runs like the real Octopus. However, the arms that it has are more curved down. Within the six arms are attached the two cars. The two cars on the other hand moves or spin on its own, and it should be loaded with separate employee.

• SDC Polyp—this type of Octopus ride has a similarity to the Schwarzkopf Monster II; however the cars that has been attached and never moves independently. The cards are just attached fixed on the arms which the ones are moving.

• Eyerly Monster—it features six arms with four cars attached on it. The cars also spin on independently and it should have been loaded by a separate employee.

• Schwarzkopf Monster II—this Octopus type of rides contains five arms with five cars attached on each of it. Compared to the three rides first mentioned, Schwarzkopf Monster II ride has metal bars which are attached to the center of the arms. Since the arms move in a circle, the cars move the same way too.

• Eyerly Monster—it has six arms which has a four cars attached on it. The cars spin independently which should have loaded with separate employee.

Before visiting a park, knowing their rides is necessary so that you will know if you were capable in riding of it.
