I've used chaining to store ropes and kite bridles for years. Never seen this two handed method before. Will give it a go. Thanks. Oh, and chaining does not leave tangles in a rope, as it is not being twisted, merely looped. And then unlooped. Neat.
It's fancy, I'll say that much. Not very useful when you could simply use a gasket hitch to keep your ropes or extension cords tidy, this seems more like a trick to show your co workers when you have time to play around with rope.
@UltraVert I had hired this driver to do a major move for us. He showed up with his ropes in this configuration and since he seemed to "know the ropes" I asked to shoot a video of his techniques. I'm sure there are other way to do this, but his method worked just fine.
Like "Spector1959" I have done electrical cords using the "one-handed chain" for many years. I've never had one tangle or knot up using the chain method even when there were multiple cords thrown in together, they were always separate and came apart easily. I will give this way a try. I hate to criticize but "g7vgg" is wrong.
I've stored my electrical extension cords using a chain similar to this --- I guess you would call it a "one-handed chain". This looks faster and "shortens" the rope more... will have to give it a whirl. Nice idea.

I've never seen a technique more likely to leave tangles in a rope!
Thats useless!

@g7vgg Have you actually tried it or it's just much easier to criticize? Do you have a better solution?
