Pressure washer hoses are a mystery to me. They kink as you move around cleaning a car, but frequently you find two kinks in opposing directions - a left-hand one followed by a right-hand one - and they seem incapable of cancelling each other out when you pull on the hose.
The photo above is two left-land kinks in succession, which can't be cancelled out anyway, but you know what I mean.
Apparently it's possible to buy anti-kink hoses, but then you face the challenge of every manufacturer having a different standard for connection to the lance. Yes, there are adaptors on the market, but they're a nightmare to navigate, as they have technical designations for the connections, rather than saying which manufacturer's jet spray they work on. Even then, some manufacturers change their standard with the introduction of a new model, just to ensure you buy a lot more kit from them.
