I was also an annual visitor to Action Park (1000% called 'Traction park'), mostly in early teenage years, I remember distinctly when the loop slide was built and that it rarely was open. It was briefly open on one visit but was an obvious injury trap and we knew not to try it.

I still really love water parks and that's our families' go to, traction park is the inspiration. Water Wizz in Wareham MA is an underrated low-key fun day (we were there 8/31), went to another decent off brand park in Maine a few years ago that had one or two fun 'drop slides', Volcano Bay is favorite thus far.
  
 I made one final trip to Traction Park while in college (circa 1986?), they had built a six-story-ish platform for Bungee jumping. I'd lost a bet and had to go. My girlfriend went first, at the bottom as she was being un-clipped the guy on the crash pad radio'd the guy about to send me off yelling & lecturing severely "don't ever send anyone off again without checking their straps are secured properly!" 
I felt I had no choice since my girlfriend had done it, so I walked the plank & jumped.
