The hose collapses right at the coupling--the suction is just too great. I did find a "commercial grade" heavy duty hose at Doheny's pool supply. 40 footer was $65. I'll let you all know if it works once it arrives.

EUREKA!
Found a hose heavy duty enough to not collapse while vacuuming from the skimmer port. Who knows who the manufacturer is, but I got it at Doheny's Pool. It's got a 5yr warranty. Nice and stiff, no problems; no need for a vac plate or any other non-sense.
