I've got a question... how many "Ultimate" Levitations have been released in the past year alone? How many of them are essentially based on the same two principles?

As I've said before, these Tippy Toe tricks AREN'T Levitations... An Aga Tower or Super X or the Asrah... those are genuine levitations (and/or "suspensions"... there is a difference).

Rather than wasting you money on these parlor tricks, study them and consider the fact that they are working off of two standard principles most of the time... use that grey stuff god gave you to figure the thing out, most of them aren't that hard to figure and prove to be more of a pain to perform than they are worth.

Dear nysundisputed

You mention:
"Assuming you can afford this"...

Well, no disrespect intended, but you can hardly write, let alone seem able to afford a one-trick pony retailing at around $1600

Secondly, why are you so keen? There's plenty of info available from Roy Kuepper's site, including a video.

Thirdly... you say you're a street magician... best advice is stick to a Balducci.

Is this the new thing where the girl moves around the waist of the mage?

I think I've seen it in the Stevens Catalog if that's the case... for the price Siege is talking then we're probably getting into more than tippy-toe tricks. :lol:

Dear seige,
i may not be able to type good,but your ignorance outweighs my typing
or even spelling skills.
Being in this country called the United States of America less then a year I learned to write and speek pretty good,so dont judge.
Im very successful in business where i had no hand outs or government grants just because someone has a few typos dont mean they cant afford expensive tricks again that's just being ignorant.
the reason why i dont go to roys site is because i need a true review from another party he is promoting his own product there.
thank you for your time
goodbye and on the way get
some common sense.

Dear nysundisputed,

Being so critical and insulting does you no credit at all. All you had to do was explain the suituation and references to getting 'some common sense' are very infantile, this isn't the schoolyard where we resort to such sillyness. Please don't do it again, thanks.

Ok... being someone for whom English isn't a primary language is an entirely different issue but it does help clarify things (btw... did you ever do an intro post so folks know a bit about who you are and why your typing/English skills aren't so great?)

My personal crassness on this topic comes from two things one of which is admitted ignorance... you supplied no link to the effect in question thus I assumed you were another kid with a woody over some new Tip-Toe routine that people think are "Levitations". To someone with my background a levitation is something rather heavy and a pain in the butt to set up and make happen... and I've done some of the biggest and most dramatic levis out there... so yes, I have a strong bias when it comes to this subject... forgive me.

Based on what has been said, what you are talking about is more akin to a Super X on Steroids. If it is the one I'm thinking it to be, then as I said before, the $1,600.00 price tag makes it a steal BUT, you are going to have angle issues with it... this is the nature of most all levitation systems out there and why most that do work where angles and lighting are a problem, use a Broom or Sword Suspension

If you can supply a link to the effect or better yet, a video of it being presented, I can give you more feedback that may prove of benefit.
