Hummer card is good, but if you want a card levitation you could try Frequent Flyer, available on NUMS...

I like the UFO (I think it's also called the humming bird), and you can basically use it to levitate any small object, but ofc cards give the best performance.

So I was looking at NUMS on the Frequent Flier page. I wanted to see the Demo, but the trick Fit For A King played instead...hmm.

Thanks,
Dominick

Take my advice, and BUY MICHAEL AMMAR'S EASY TO MASTER THREAD MIRACLES. Have a good read of that review, then buy the DVD.

Don't stop at penguinmagic and buy a single trick. Don't skim over the DVD review and decide it's not for you. Don't buy thread ready made from a dealer.

Buy this DVD.

And no, I'm not on commission...

Yep Ammar's "EASY TO MASTER THREAD MIRACLES" is good for any starter in object levitations. Pity it doesn't include an IT or loops with it, so make sure to buy at least one of them with it.
After you got that mastered, Losander's DVDs are great for all sorts of levitations (though he tend to work with stuff that ether you have to make poorly or buy from his website for a monster price).
If you like IT try Kevin James stuff, especially the floating rose.

:!: DON'T BUY ANY IT. :!: Watch the DVD, then source your IT yourself. It tells you how, and it's SO easy and SO cheap.

And it's not just levitations that you can use IT for. It's such a strong tool with many applications.

Well not for me... I'm from Israel so half of the stuff he suggest there you can't find here, and the other half I don't know how it's called in Hebrew.
