PISTON PISTOFF

Japan Flag   From the Right, from the Left   

Green tick  Reach the finish platform
Red X  Fall into the water
Skull icon  Danger from both sides

The contestant has to cross a long strip of material, which is stretched lengthwise high above a pool. This material isn't sturdy, so will bend and stretch under their weight.
Continuously popping in and out just above this strip are eight giant pistons. Four pop out from the left and four pop out from the right - with each piston coming from the opposite side to the previous one.
If the contestant can dodge the poking pistons and reach the finish platform at the other end of the pool, all while being sprayed with foam, they win the game. But if they fall, or are pushed off, into the water below they lose.
Super version
Having already cleared Forked Over, the contestant has to reach the end of Piston Pistoff to complete the combined super-game.

The pistons move in a steady pattern, so taking the time to wait between them is the key to avoid being knocked off.
