Taller slunky

Sometimes the sewer drain is elevated, so that there is no way to have downhill slope all the way from rv drain valve to sewer. The valve on the rv is pretty high up, so a taller slunky would work much better, but can’t seem to find one. Any suggestions for taller drain hose support?

May not be the tallest out there. but we have a Camco Sidewinder 20' support that works well at the places we've visited so far. On occasion I've reversed it and put the tall end by the sewer drop. It just made the slope more gradual.

Well we stole an idea from someone else. We use a 5x5 vinyl post surround 8 ft long to store the hose in. Mounted to frame of trailer
It's mounted to the frame right by the sewer outlet on trailer
Inside it We use a 4 inch vinyl eavestrough. Remove the mounting edge
Heat with a heat gun to make it uniform on each side
Now the sewer hose stays in the eaves trough
Hang the trough on the sewer outlet with a plastic strap and now you have a support that goes out 8 feet.
Need longer?
Add the catipillar support under the outside end.
Need outlet end higher... Couple small pieces of 4x4.
Easy peasy!
No worries about where to store the hose or the support. They both go back in the vinyl post cover
Couple tarp straps and top caps you have your end caps.
Best of all no rust as its all vinyl

Thanks. I may.also try turning it over and see if I can set the hose on it. That would be a little taller.
