Maracas rockets, also known as rocket-maracas, ignite and expel their handles when [[Rayman]] lands on them, and then start rising. It is possible to change their courses by placing [[Rayman]] on the left or right edges. If the maracas rockets get stuck, they will burst after a few seconds, potentially damaging [[Rayman]]. In ''[[Rayman Advance]]'', maracas rockets move at a slower speed than in the other versions, probably to make up for the game's smaller field of view.
*[[Maracas rocket]]s, also known as rocket-maracas, which ignite when stepped on and can be used as flying platforms.
*[[Spring maracas]], similar in appearance to the above but which, when stepped on, only sink slightly before springing back to their original position.
*[[Turnstile]]s, a different type of maracas which spin, either continuously or at regular intervals, around a fixed or moving axis.


Spring maracas are an alternate type of maracas, which do not ignite when stepped on but only cushion [[Rayman]]'s jump, sinking slightly before springing back to their original positions. It is usually safer not to stand on them for too long, as they are often placed above [[wrong note]]s.

Both maracas rockets and spring maracas are available in ''[[Rayman Designer]]'' and its spin-offs.
