I doubt that you mean that literally for hand coiling, it would be

Not coiling the multi by hand, but doing the same over/under twisty
thing whilst coiling it into its flightcase.

Ah right the multies I use are kept on drums not in flightcases.
Flightcases would take up more space in the cable tender. Even a
small outside broadcast will have half a dozen or more 8 pair multies
up to a few hundred metres long depending on the venue.
