I wish Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber and Junior Asparagus would do the exact same thing that Twilight Velvet, Shining Armor and Baby Flurry Heart did!
 
They would be perfect for playing the roles of the Northern Stars!

As soundtea mentioned, Twilight self-levitates in the S3 premiere, specifically 8 minutes and 47 seconds into part 2.

Twilight self levitated in the S3 premiere.
 
I think I know what you mean, but if so, I’m calling foul since she simply used Reverse Gravity.
 
First time we saw self-levitation was when Starlight used it in the S5 finale.

Here’s an idea: ignore what the show says about magic. It’s always contradictory and makes no sense. The show actually implies that fusing a bird with an orange is somehow easier than a sex change spell, so I officially ignored everything about magic since then.

Plus, Velvet is probably using her entire magical focus on levitation here for only about 25 seconds. Whereas Starlight was levitating herself throughout the Cutie Re-Mark while casting all kinds of powerful magic without any visible signs of fatigue.
 
I imagine self-levitation is something that many unicorns can do, but only powerful ones with high stamina and magical finesse can do well for a length of time with any semblance of coordination. Any Joe unicorn off the street would be liable to break their neck if they attempted it without building up their magical skill and strength over time. The same could be said for people and activities like gymnastics and rock-climbing.

Other ponies have levitated themselves and others up to now, but Starlight actually uses it like actual flight. She has velocity, maneuverability and is able to keep it for extended periods of time. She used it to hanging out witn Rainbow Dash and to fighting Twilight (while dodging and casting other spells).

So because Twilight Velvet can do ONE thing that Twilight Sparkle cannot, that makes her better than her daughter?

Both Twilight Sparkle and Twilight Velvet were modeled after the G1 unicorn Twilight, who was a noted magic user. It stands to reason that the daughter took after her mother in the magic prowess department.

@SeraphimDawn
Yeah this kind of pisses me off. They made a big deal about Starlight being able to fly and it was heavily alluded that Twilight herself cannot fly via magic and then here is Velvet just casually doing it. Oh well, better add it on to my head cannon that the ponies we think are the strongest/ most power aren’t actually, they just make great figure heads for the state. So let’s see, so far on the list of ponies proven to be better than Twilight is Velvet and Starlight. Here’s hoping Trixie is as well.
 
Makes me wonder…  
Was Twilight Velvet really actually more powerful than her daughter when she was still a unicorn?
 
Starlight certainly appears to be more magically adept than unicorn Twilight was. Twilight, since becoming alicorn, has seen a tremendous magic boost. She can technically fly using the levitation spell now, but she has wings.

I think that’s the basis for many of the most frequent commenters to be on this site. That’s what you do when you have no creativity, pedantically criticize everything else to make yourself feel less empty inside.
