Cashaan teaches a bunch of levitations, suspensions, and animations in the download. You will learn a bunch of telekinetic type magic with many objects including straws. For basically everything, the object is borrowed or completely clean. This means you can borrow a straw and make it move without any switches. It also means you can borrow a bill, make it levitate and hand it back, no switches.
It should work with paper, or plastic straws. Light weight is key. It may work for other heavier objects but the effect will be less dramatic.
This is a course on applications of a classic method. Using this specific setup and method will allow you to perform miracles with borrowed everyday objects and end clean. You definitely aren't limited to straws.
