Your zSplit is missing a & and even then would never result in lists longer than one whose elements are all less than or equal to 0.7

Using a different zSplit

z=Table[Random[],{1000}];

zSplit=Split[z,#1<=0.7 === #2<=0.7&];

With this Split, lists longer than one can only contain elements less than or equal to 0.7 so it is unnecessary to test the elements' values.

Select[zSplit,Length[#]>5&][[1]]

{0.465823,0.397768,0.520191,0.0301858,0.516125,0.616719,0.133392,0.33706}

Creating mixed lists

zSplit=Split[z,#1<=0.7 && #2<=0.7||#1>0.7 && #2>0.7&];

Select[zSplit,Length[#]>5&&And@@Thread[#<=0.7]&][[1]]

{0.465823,0.397768,0.520191,0.0301858,0.516125,0.616719,0.133392,0.33706}
