Tennis ball

[Mrgirth]

Since starting wfp cleaning Iv found dragging my hose round car tyres a big ball ache Iv just found out a hack of putting a tennis ball under the car tyre prevents the hose getting stuck did anyone else know this or use anything else to prevent it

Does that work? I would have thought that still gives a catch point.
I tend to use a cone as that seems to stop the hose catching.

Yeah Iv found it to work pretty well with my 8mm hose provided where under the tyre I wedged the ball

At one time someone sold a packet of 3 slip and slides. Then nothing for a few years and then an advert on eBay a couple of years ago. The principle was a 90 degree radius with a 90 degree angle inside. It was great for pulling our hose around car tyres and brick corners. Had to watch the car didn't reverse and shatter the slip and slide or we left one behind somewhere never to be seen again.

I've just looked and a seller has then on eBay called "slip slide"

We tried them years ago and they do work but couldn’t be bothered using them they sat in the van for years generally just take more hose than is needed around obstacles and find that works best .
