thumb|Tagada in the Vienna Wurstelprater A tagada is an amusement ride made by various manufacturers. Riders sit in a round bowl with bars, but no seatbelts or restraints (except for harnesses in the Incredible Pizza Company's tagadas.) The ride starts to spin, music starts playing and pneumatic arms bounce the riders up and down.
The Tagada is operated by a human operator who will synchronize the bounces with the music beat. Most operators give time for riders to get to their seats again before making the ride bounce (this occurs if turbulence is too strong). Sometimes riders will be told the ride is over and the gates will not open and the operator will restart the ride making everyone fall over and then open the gates.
