Not sure what you mean with "understand them", but theres just two things to understand in my view. If you want to learn how to do (or arrange) palmas to a specific music you need to study the music first, develop a feel for it and look for standard patterns for this type of musical section. It could be a strumming or a falseta, doesnt matter. Whats important is that the rythmic feel of it is represented in the palmas. Thats it about arranging palmas imo. If you want to do that you need a music first. You could take SdlF, why not. As you see in the video most of the palmas are just in 6s and, which would be the second thing, it is done by overlapping different patterns, not just one. Jason had made a good post recently. There is always one base pattern, and on top of that the rythmic variations done by other palmeros. In this video the clapping 1,2,3,4,5 makes the base. Other times it is just 1,2,x,4,5. Hope this helps.
