it used to be ridax, but they don't seem to have them anymore, anyone know of someplace else to get them?

How about here:http://www.qables.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=76_81&zenid=1187cc1c74b21637d305aeb5d40d3c03
 
That's bad news about Ridax. I was just in their site a while back, and they still showed the Apple stuff.

Seems the eBay seller offering the cheap paracord who's listing I linked to is gone (banned, lol).
 
Well, all_outdoor_and_more, asincal, sgentry46, and mrparacord don't look like they will get banned any time soon judging by how much good feedback they each have.
 
This blue looks good for an HD25-1 Adidas cable.  Or blue camo would look cool, too, I think.


the first one has a lot of colors, that is awesome, but he has this in the description:
"Please note that these are cut at 5 feet each (even if purchasing several of the same color).  "
 
I'd be ordering some form the second one.

[size=x-large]Please note that these are cut at 5 feet each[/size] (even if purchasing several of the same color).  Please check out one of our other listings if you are looking for longer lengths, or send us a message to see about requesting uncut continuous sections.  If requesting this, please ask first before buying because we may only have cut sections left.

7509HD recable.  I tried using the very soft orange paracord that I have underneath, but the result is not as quiet as I expected.  Well, at least it is very soft.
