Wicker Flicker

 (also known as Wicker Flicker, Slosh Pit, Water Mortar and Philipping Out) is a physical challenge in Survivor. One member of each tribe fires a ball into a field, while other members attempt to catch the ball to score points. The challenge debuted in.

Rules
Each tribe selects a given number of people to fire balls from a slingshot into an open field. The remaining contestants spread out to designated locations and compete to catch the balls with either wicker baskets or a handheld net. Every ball caught (sometimes including balls fired by the opposing tribe) scores a point, and the first tribe to reach a given score wins the challenge.

Usage
This challenge debuted as Wicker Flicker in as a reward challenge. One tribemember was chosen to fire the slingshots, while the others attempted to catch their tribes' ball in a wicker basket. In this version, only balls fired by one's own tribe would contribute to the score. Sook Jai won the challenge and an authentic Thai feast.

The challenge was next featured as an individual reward challenge in, under the name Slosh Pit. The contestants were randomly divided into two teams of four, and fought to catch the fired balls in baskets. Alex Angarita, Dreamz Herd, Earl Cole and Stacy Kimball won the reward: a spa day at a local resort.

The challenge, here known as Water Mortar, was first used for immunity in. This season also introduced the handheld nets that have been used in all subsequent versions of the challenge. The tribes alternated firing a ball across a shallow pool of water, with the first tribe to make five catches winning. Timbira won the challenge, and immunity.

In, the challenge was used as a combined reward/immunity challenge, and was played on the beachside. Ometepe was the first tribe to score five catches, winning immunity and a picnic at San Juan del Sur.

The challenge reappeared (renamed Philipping Out) as an immunity challenge in. Denise Stapley and Lisa Whelchel were selected to fire the slingshots for Kalabaw and Tandang, respectively. The evenly matched challenge ended when Malcolm Freberg scored the final catch, winning immunity for Tandang, 5 to 4.
