I was just wondering if anybody could tell me anything about this trick as I have been thinking of perchasing this trick for some time.

Can the spectator look underneath your feet?
Can you carry this trick around?
How high can you actually levitate?
Can you pass a piece of wood underneath your feet to show there is no hidden supports?
Does this trick also go by the name,"Neo-rise."

I would most appreciate it if anybody could tell me this information.

Thanks
Sam

Yes Sam I can. I bought this effect about a month ago and i will tell you this: You will get an amazing reaction from it. It's not as impromtu as the normal one but you can carry it about very easily and you can set it up within seconds,(if you dont use tape). I can levitate about 8inches or so and no spectator has sussed it yet. You could pass something underneath but you wouldn't generally be up for that long, however you can wiggle your feet! It does go by the name neo-rise and you can just use your jacket as cover. A good add on to this effect comes with the product and tells you how you can do it in such a way so the spectators can look under your feet! Also, you could perform this one and if a spectator says " Ok, do that without the jacket", then you say "fine I will". Take the jacket away, turn around and do the normal Blaine style levitation. This sequence will absolutely kill them!

Cheers, David

The trick its self is not hard to perform, in fact i can think of a way to perform this without buying the gimmick.

Yeh there's a number of ways but I have tried them and the gimmick works the best. It is very simple to perform and a few minutes infront of a mirror is enough. You can also do it to more people as it is almost totally angle proof. I did it in a local pub to around 15 people, some standing some sitting, scattered in the room and every single person was amazed. If you are standing up against the corner of the room then everything is covered. (with a big enough jacket) They will laugh or their gums will drop, either way they won't believe what they are seeing.

David,
is it possible to do this trick infront of a few more people say 100 to 150 on a small stage. I'm asking this as I'm thinking of entering a talent show! Is it totally angle proof. What type of music would you suggest for doing this trick ( I mean whats out now ). I would be grateful if you could name some.

Sam

Sam i think you would really have to ask Laurence for this one as he has had more experience than me. It is almost completely angle proof but I have never done it on a stage or infront of any more than 15 people. As for the music I would probably use something a bit eery like trance music. The new Faithless song or something if you wanted to create an atmosphere. Even some light dance music would do it. I suggest you pick something you like and something that can relate to the trick and what type of atmosphere you want to create.

Hope this helps Sam but Laurence would probably know best as I have never even been to a convention.

Cheers, David

Hi Sam

It is possible to perform on stage and levitate about three feet into the air, but you would need to walk on stage with a bag (with another secret prop in!).

Does Ultimate Levitation use very powerful m****** under your feet. I have heard of a version that does use these and it only costs £13.99 yet the m****** cost more than that themselves! So does Ultimate Levitation use this prop


Thanx
