Callouses

[Chicken Man]

Im just wondering if anyone else has large callouses (lumps of hardened skin) on their hands and if they find them affecting their card handling.

As well as magic I do flying trapeze four or five days a week and my callouses cause cards to "click" as they move across them in some moves, like the clipshift.

Anyone else have this problem?

I get callouses from time to time i think it is just part of it.

My hands get trashed from my Zippo sometimes.

Dude mine come and go all the time I have one on my thumb(right) and it won't go away. At first I thought I burnt it but realized it was constantly from flourishing. The only thing I can suggest is baby lotion. It helps for a day or two. Oh, and try doing the clipshift softer.

flying trapeze? thats awesome!

And callouses are the same as anything: Practice, modify, and practice some more until it works for you!

I have them from playing guitar. Just modify what you are having problems with and adjust.

I get them alot from workin out and free running but i use this hand lotion my girl has (shhhh she doesnt know my yet) to moisturize my hands and even though it doesnt get rid of them it makes them a lil softer and more bearable. i think its this lotion from victoria secrets that i bought for a her a while back but im sure any would do.

I get them from lifting weights, but it hasn't effected my card skills... yet.
