looks like cordless/pusher/S7 (which were effectively 1 company anyway), have taken their merger all the way and become 1 company in name as well: revolution.
Seems like the holds are all the same near as I can tell... but it looks as though the pads and clothing lines have been tweaked. Too bad. I always thought that the cordless/S7 brands were pretty cool...

pusher went under and the owners founded Revolution as a new company. They have dropped cordless and S7 (which was already gone anyways). They still have many of the same holds ,and you can still see a little P on some of the pics. From what I have heard Jason Kehl is up in the air over whether or not this new company owns his naming rights for holds because he has supposedly received an offer from Etch holds.

dude, S7 was started and run by Ben Moon, he came to the US to partner up with Pusher / Cordless... they screwed him over and kept his gear and designs. they suck. alot. and i sincerely hope that their little self perceived monopoly of the pad industry crumbles into oblivion.
end rant.

maybe i should qualify my post...i am sorry to see S7 go. i had long since switched to purchasing holds from voodoo, nicros, and soill. it took weeks and weeks to get orders...the song has already been sung.
thanks for the update, i do know the history of S7, but i was unaware what had happened since moon's partnership with pusher / cordless.
thanks for the rant. dennis miller would be proud.
