Astuteness of the day: How to become a freestyle football champion

Date of publication: April 10, 2018 at 09:25:01 pm



Andrew Henderson, winner of Red Bull Street Style 2014, explains how to succeed in five stages.

1. Take pleasure

The most important thing is to have fun doing it.
"When I was younger, I practiced a lot of different sports. I then focused on football and rugby, and I loved it. My favorite part about freestyle is that there is no need for a stadium or a field, just one ball is enough. When I started, the star was called Mr Woo, he was a freestyle legend from South Korea. He was able to make crazy tricks, as he juggled lying on the floor. I told myself that I would love to do the same thing too and it has become a great source of inspiration for me. The most important thing, whoever you are, is to have fun doing it. You can train to participate in tournaments, but that's not the goal: if you train, it's because you should like it. "

2. Have a secret boot

I'm pretty sure I won thanks to Henderson Move.
"In Brazil, I had the opportunity to make a Henderson Move, one of the tricks I invented, and to which I gave my name, of course! I pulled it out in the last 30 seconds of the final and I'm pretty sure I won with that trick. It's been a while since I'm preparing it. I tried it in the semifinals but without really getting it right. In the final, we clearly see the reaction of the public when I succeed.

3. Stick to a strict diet

Vegetables, fruits in quantity and a lot of water are needed.
"For me, my success depends a lot on my diet. I almost only lack organic. I have tried in the past a gluten-free diet, no cereals or dairy products. I'm just trying to be as fit as possible. Vegetables, fruits in quantity and a lot of water are needed. Some have a very healthy diet but do not absorb enough fluids and this can be harmful for training. "

4. Rub the world's best

It was really cool to spend time with Neymar.
"I had the opportunity to work with Lionel Messi and David Beckham, and I really appreciate Neymar as well. We are the same age and he too wants to have fun with a ball in his feet. He wants to be the best and I have a lot of admiration for him. We met earlier this year to shoot an advertisement before the World Cup in Brazil. It was crazy to be in his company, but also very cool. "

5. Do not be afraid to try different things

When they are all screaming during the tests, I tell myself that I would like to try me! "
"I also had the chance to spend time with Tinchy Stryder [an English rapper], I did not know he was playing in" I'm a Celebrity "[an English reality program that takes place in the Australian bush ]. I'm sure he'll be fine, but the change of environment will make him funny. I can not wait to see this on TV! Would it tell me to participate in this kind of show? I would love to go to the jungle, I love nature. When they are all screaming during the tests, I tell myself that I would like to try me! "
