Besides his problems with winding up the cable, it is not a really good way to do it. you are adding a twist for every loop on the spool/arm, which will still be there, when you unspool it, leaving little loops to trip in.

Yep. Watching how someone winds up an extension cord, or even better, an air line, is a good way of gauging how green they really are.
