The text says: "Sifones, toboganes, saltos de baja y media altura, grandes
charcos para nadar, zona subterránea por el agua,
caos de bloques"
Any ideas?

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

siphon
We had a play on the **siphon** in Weir and then slid the lower weir into the bobsleigh corner. At lower levels this could go from the top.

Interchangeable with 'sump':
38. What are a sifon, a helictite, and a
meander?
A sifon (siphon) is a sump i.e. a passage
in a cave that is submerged under water.
A sump may be static, with no inward or
outward flow, or active, with continuous
through-flow. Static sumps may also be
connected underwater to active stream
passage.
