NON TANGLE light hanging cord – coated dyneema?

Check out the UltraGlide Bear Bagging Line from Lawson Equipment, tied with a Sailor's Coil.

"Seems like a good middle ground would be this out of stock BPL AirCore Pro (http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/aircore_pro_ursa_bear_bag_hanging_rope.html). Until its back in stock," giggle. how people find the store anymore amazes me.

@Ken – searching! And yes the search on this site is so crappy it should come from Geocities…

I have been using this flat braided cord for years, have mentioned it before, and much prefer it to Zing-It, Super Glide, Dyneema. It was purchased from an Army/Navy store bulk roll. Dimensions are 1/8 inch wide X 1/16 inch thick. It tangles but not nearly as severely as the others and the tangles or knots are not as tightly formed. The hanging experience goes from one of near insanity to one of slight annoyance. Enjoy the difference! My experience is limited to softwoods; hardwoods are outside my bailiwick.

The “store” has been out of business for quite a while. Somebody may know the exact date if that’s important to anyone. Everything can tangle but the least tangle prone cord I’ve used is Zpacks 1.4mm Z-Line Slick Dyneema Cord . I’ve never had a problem of it slipping out of my hand but I guess if your trying to hang a very heavy bag anything could happen. The least tangle free method I’ve found is to simply coil it, much like Steofan posted, and carefully put it in my rock sack. Just as important is to carefully remove it from the sack when needed. A bit of patience goes a long way to control tangles.

I don't know if you meant it slips out when you are pulling it with the bear bag on the other end, but if so, just grab a sturdy stick and lay it at a 90 angle with your end of the line and then wrap the line around it around a few times to make a handle that you can hold onto with both hands and pull.
