Giorgio Luppi

football freestyler

Class '97, he is from Bologna and he started to approach the world of freestyle soccer thanks to Youtube, when at about 13/14 years old he bumped into videos of guys showing skills with the ball not only on the field but also on the street. The fable says that the first time that he saw a freestyle compilation he was dumbfounded. He started looking for video tutorials of those tricks that were not comparable to the juggle of Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, the ones that he considered, until that moment, the best performance that an audience could ask for. Giorgio started to practice the first upper tricks at home, but after few months he quit because of lack of motivation. In September 2015, he decided to start over, regularly training. After a few months he could see the progress he had done and he also received positive feedbacks on social networks where he posted his first videos. Since then, he has not stopped, continuing to practice everyday, taking part in contests, and working as a performer in many events around Italy.
