Act like your balancing or something like tie your shoes. Say before I do it let me tie my shoe. Don't want to get hurt now.

I think if you have to "Rub your feet" you should look into a different type of levitation. Unless it really looks ike you are just "rubbing your feet". Then maybe you could just say it helps to rub them for some reason. I always find setting up for levitations a difficult one to explain.

Instead of rubbing your feet, you rub the floor infront of you and tell them you need to build static electricity for the event to come..

Thanks guys, but how about the back of my feet? The gim is located there, and I don't really know how to pull that off. Have the balance, and the retraction down, but cant find a way to "explain" why lol. If you guys have ideas on loading gimmicks, that would be awesome. Its about 1 1/2 inch long. Thanks guys

If it is only an inch and a half, maybe you can palm it and show there is nothing up your pants leg and while you are pulling up the pants leg of the leg opposite to where the gimmick will go, that could be your misdirection to put it in place. Unless you have a release after the illusion, you will need to reverse that process when you are finished to show that there still is nothing there so you can retrieve it. That's why I like the Balducci. No gimmicks to put in place. Just pure illusion at its finest.

Just say that static elecricity is the cause of the levitation, this will give a reason for rubbing your feet.

Maybe you can just act like your doing your pre levitation stretch move.Or maybe tighten up the laces on your shoes because sometimes you go so high they fall off and you need them to cushion your fall!

Is this a gimmick that you have made yourself? maybe you could find some information on marketing it? I think tie your shoes tight or loser, whatever you feel like and then test that they wont/will come off your feet right by pulling them down off you feet at the back, that will give you an exeptible reason? daz

Say your feet are tired from walking around all day.
Just an idea. |

Perform a card to shoe effect before you levitate.
