    I've usually heard it referred to as the "vertical canyons".

    There is no name for it on any of the maps I've seen.

    I've called it a couple different names, Zig-Zag is one, Z Restriction or Z Bend are some others and I've heard Vertical Canyons as well.

    BTW there is a Z Bend on the Bonnet map.

    It's bad luck to be superstitious.

    "After 700 feet of swimming lowly , I get to finally stretch out thingie"

    (just a thought)
