There are different designs of spinners. Some won't cut away anything in front of it, only on the sides. Others have a simple 0° forward spray angle. The real fancy ones have a turbo nozzle that rotates a forward stream with additional rear facing nozzles to push the head / pull the pipe along. The real fancy ones have an adjustable three legged sled to keep the nozzle in the middle. The sled might have three ports; one for the hose and two facing opposite directions for nozzles.The spinning nozzle worked the best.
You could try a large Brasscraft drain bladder. Maybe from the bottom first.
Push as far as you can. If you start getting water coming up in the yard, dig there.
The size of that drain pictured probably doesn't have ridges on the interior does it? looks more like culvert pipe.What about a large accessible drain like this?
