If a gear manufacturer sells product direct, they will often manufacture it to length.
I know that at my job, through our "employee benefits", we can get runners, ropes, etc. made to length by certain companies.
Try finding some soft goods manufacturers that take direct orders and calling them up. They may be able to help you out.

As far as I know we're the only folks selling 1" web with guaranteed no splices. Even buying directly from the mill doesn't get any promises, nor does the mill markings of the number of splices (if applicable). I have to unroll them, and reroll them just to be sure (and we buy web by the several pallets at a time).

Hey joe, i'm going to Dynamic Earth to get my webbing, do you know how good they are about splices? I'm looking to get about 100ft of webbing...
I had requested one of your slackline kits for my graduation but i didnt recieve it, and i dont have the money to buy one for myself. Otherwise i'd buy one from you...

About anywhere where you buy it in person off a roll you will be able to ask for no splices. I no longer go to DE for personal reasons, but they are just that, personal reasons.
Getting spliceless web by the whole roll is a totally different story and it's much harder to get non-spliced rolls without paying a large premium.
If you are already swinging by Springfield would you just want to pick some up in person? I know for a fact we have the cheapest webbing since we do so much larger volume or the stuff.
Of if you'd rather Bass Pro usually has a cheaper price that DE and it's the same thing, for less than a roll spans you shouldn't have any problem getting no splices. Last I checked the Bass Pro catalog outlet had a roll of royal blue on clearance.
If you have a color preference right now I've got white, black, red, navy blue, olive drab, orange, yellow, lime green. Or if you want I've got 3 100 foot spans of some used (a little dirty but relatively new) white I'd donate towards your cause for real cheap.
Drop me an email at joe@slacklineexpress.com
To everyone else, sorry for the personal clutter.
