contents We consider sinusoidal undulations which appear on certain garden hoses under normal use. We propose an explanation and provide a model for this phenomenon, and make a connection with biological structures as well as self-buckling. We compare observations with model predictions, and suggest potential applications in the area of shape-changing materials.
