Description
This rapid could almost be considered the run out of Paralyzer, but there is a small pool between them. Z-turn looks insignificant compared to Paralyzer but it's actually much more dangerous. The current makes a severe left turn and slams directly into a badly undercut cliff. The trick is to boof right over the guard rock pushing the current left. The move is scariest at low flows and gets easier with more water.
