Yeah, I could time the flips and almost 9 times out of 10 “guess” which side it was going to be. I’m not going to lie and say that I didn’t game the absolute fuck out of that ability as a kid. We played street sports all the time, so it was pretty handy.
Flip such that the maximum rotation is achieved, height should be a natural arc a few feet high, then with open palm, strike down at the coin like your smashing a fly on a tabletop, and snatch it out of the air.
My buddy Julian taught me this 40 years ago… Doing it right now and I can still make it come heads every time. Why though?

I just tried it and I’ve sadly lost the ability. Magic really does fade with adulthood.

Well, you basically determined the number of turns the coin took.
Kids are stupid, what can I say?
I’m still kind of a kid at heart, in that way.
