This is a Polaris TR35P (like a 280), and the feed hose continually gets stuck as shown in the photo. Feed hose floats fine, swivel works well. Everything else is fine and when not tangled it works great.

Should I add another swivel in there to facilitate non-kinking of the feed hose?

Is your hose properly sized?

Do you have the correct length of leader hose to the first swivel with the floats positioned as shown?

Is the center swivel properly positioned?

Are the floats properly positioned?

What is your water temperature? The hose gets stiff in cold water and will be more flexible when the water heats up.

Also try removing the hose from the pool and laying it straight on you pool deck in the sun for a minimum of 24 hours to reduce the memory effect. This always helps my pressure side hose when it begins coiling too much.
