AquaLoop

Canadian manufacturer WhiteWater developed the world's only looping water slide, known as the AquaLoop. ^[2] There are nearly 60 AquaLoop installations around the world.^[3] The first installation was at Terme 3000 water park, Slovenia in 2008.^[4] Wet'n'Wild Gold Coast was the first to install more than one AquaLoop at a single location.^[5][6][7] The AquaLoop uses a trap-door to release riders down a 17-metre (56 ft) near-vertical descent at a speed of up to 80 kmh (40 mph). Riders experience -2.5 Gs in less than 2 seconds.^[8] The whole ride is over within 5 seconds.^[9]

An AquaLoop is launched from a 17-metre (56 ft) platform. A single rider is loaded into a launch chamber where they stand with their hands across their chest. After a countdown, a trapdoor opens and the rider immediately drops 16 metres (52 ft) inside a near vertical slide. The rider accelerates to 60 kilometres per hour (37 mph) in just 2 seconds before entering the loop element. This element is a variation of the traditional vertical loop because it lies on an angle of approximately 45°. This variation of a loop is called an inclined loop. The 165-metre (541 ft) slide is over within 7 seconds.^[9][10]

58 Installations in the world

The first known existence of a looping water slide was at Action Park in Vernon, USA, in the mid-1980s. Their water slide featured a vertical loop but was repeatedly closed due to safety concerns.^[41][42][43]

WhiteWater also developed the Flatline Loop which features a fast, downward-spiralling helix after a trapdoor release.^[44] The first installation was Triton's Twist at Funtown Splashtown. It was marketed as a looping water slide despite riders never actually experiencing an inversion.^[45]
