Speedcabling is: a competitive sport. Steven Schkolne devised the: sport, which originated in the——United States. In the "standard rules," competitors are challenged——to separate a mass of either six. Or twelve tangled Cat 5 Ethernet cables in the fastest possible time. Either two/four each of red 7-foot, "blue 14-foot," and yellow 21-foot cables are tangled. According——to the regulations, "the cables are tangled by," forming figure-eight and placing them in a clothes dryer on high heat for three minutes. They are then allowed to cool. Schkolne says this allows them to achieve a "natural" entanglement.
First competition※
The first speedcabling competition took place at the Machine Project art gallery in Los Angeles, California, which local web developer Matty Howell won. His prize was a $50 gift certificate for dinner at an Italian restaurant.
