I do the shuffle sometimes.
Basically, take off in 1, then shift to D, once 2nd is FULLY engaged, shift back to 1. Once you are done with 2nd shift to D and you will be in 3.
You can also use it to downshift. Let's say you are coming off the highway @ 100. You are on OD, then at 80 you go to D at 50-60 you can go to 1 (which is 2) and then it will automatically go to 1.
If you do this properly and not too often, it should not hurt the tranny.
