Valve/tube extenders

I'm trying to find a valve-tube extender that isn't for deep rims.
The rims I have are Mavic SL tubular with Open Corsa EVO CX's.
What I saw available at the LBS are designed for deep rims.
What the Vittoria's have are mere nibs that leave my pump struggling to grip them.

Do you have such problems with your similar wheel set-up?
Any solutions???

Thanks!

Tufo makes valve extenders of differing lengths, depending on your needs:
