Mine splits on the bend too - you could cut a couple of cm off every now and again from the top to move the bend I suppose.

It's the pole hose gardiners supply when you buy their poles. Comes in 100m reels. Aquadapter's stuff aint bad but I have to collect parcels from post office sorting office which is too much hassle so prefer to order online from gardiners and delivered to the door.
