Trying to mod my AC vent

>< I had no idea were to put a thread like this... this seemed like the best place.

So here is my problem, I have a portable room AC that uses a 5½ round extend able vent (about 3 feet long extended) to go to the window, but the way my room is setup I need to extend the vent by about 8 feet (My desk and bed is currently taking up space near my window) so I need to run the vent from my AC around the bottom under my bed going to the window.

I have gone to Home Depot and looked at the dryer vents but they are only 4 inches so it will not fit.

Does anyone know of a place where I can pick up some type of venting tube that is very flexible that is 5-6 inches and about 8-12 feet long (extended)?


Here is a crappy paint layout of how my room is, the red is the AC and how im trying to do the vent

i needed some ducting to route cold air from the ac vent to the front intake fans of my case and i found some at home depot about 6 months ago. it was in the same section as the dryer vents in a plastic bag and it was compressed like a slinky. blew a good amount of air into the computer.
 
If it's going under the bed and such, I'd almost just get a couple elbows and lengths of PVC pipe, then use the flexi stuff that came with it right before the window
