Thrust
BACKGROUND
Zippers are weird but cool. Unless they strip, then they suck. Also, closing a zipper really quickly can be dangerous. Be careful not to pinch your skin! In general, zippers are very useful and much quicker to use than buttons. No wonder they are so ubiquitous on garments.
TECHNIQUE
You have to zip up your jacket, but really quickly because you are in a rush. You can also imagine wearing a suit covered in zippers and you have to open/close them quickly. Perhaps you are wearing a warm jacket for outdoor sports. Those garments have zippers everywhere to regulate your temperature or remove some parts.

This movement is Direct, Quick, Heavy, Bound.
