I coil mine and wrap with an elastic, bungee or fat elastics that I cut from small inner tubes.
The inner tube 'elastic' (cut about 1" wide) is what I like best.

I've always rolled mine up around the ratchet, but never locked them together like that. Interesting.

I try to get straps of a different color so it is easier to pull out of the pile of spaghetti pile of straps/

I also like them thrown into a bucket to let theme breathe easier.

Maybe there is a video showing him that the tag end goes on top of the spool.
He threaded it backwards!
His way can hold the tag end in some situations making it hard to release!

That's what I think also. At minute marker 1:40 he runs the tag end down. I run mine up. I had to tie mine slightly different, but it is a good basic plan for sure.

I keep a bag of elastic bands on hand for various things and keeping my ratchet straps neat and tidy is just one of them.
