Hey guys punk here, i find that alot of my time is spent practicing for my tricks whenever im alone. Like if im drinking a coke i'll finger palm the top and drink it and it works because while at my dads he never saw the top and wondered where it went. I even practice with video games and cd's i took a ps3 game and practiced the spin in the tornado cut for a good while, im wondering how do you practice in normal life?
 
I often just mess with random objects to see what I can do. Palming, transferring, vanishing, etc. coins, caps, pens .. whatever. I just fiddle. If I happen to have cards on me, I'll work on whatever I'm working on at the time.
 
When I was in High School and taking Typing Class I kept half-dollars in classic palm position the whole 45-minutes of the class every day of the week. . . I ended up with a beautiful classic palm (3 coins and keeping a flat hand) until I screwed up in a Martial Arts demonstration and did a number on both hands & an elbow. . . OUCH!
