What about the orange flexible wire wound stuff used on aircraft, try aircraft spruce on the web to get a proper description, comes in a few sizes I think. It's hard to describe this hose, but it's like an orange cloth weave with a spiral wire reinforcement, it's pretty light, very flexible but won't kink and comes in fairly big sizes. Have a look at http://www.sisweb.com/vacuum/sis/rollflex.htm , it may be what you want.
