High thin tubes printing problem

Hello,

I have some issue printing high (7cm) thin tubes (4mm diameter) : All is very well printing until a few cm high. Then the tube is moving with the extruder and of course print quality is decreasing. is there any advice to maintain tubes?
Thanks

by the way: it's a very challenging idea to print such a tall but thin part.
only way to try this is using a big brim at the bottom and reducing the print speed significantly as you gain height.

dem inscheniör is' nix zu schwör...

Maybe even a fillet on the brim.

I have a 8mm brim but it doesn't have any effect because the problem is on the top, the bottom doesn't move! All the material is bending without moving the bottom... Ok, I will try to make thin parts connected to each tube to make them stick together, perh'ap's it will decrease movements...
Thanks for answer 😉
