The first ever Australian Red Bull Street Style champion was crowned at Bondi Icebergs!
With style, attitude and determination, Graeson Cooper takes the glory and a ticket to
the Red Bull Street Style World Final in South Africa next year.
Thousands of spectators packed Bondi Icebergs Club to witness 16 of Australia’s top freestyle footballers battle it out in the Red Bull Street Style National Final. Brisbane based football freestyler 18-year-old Graeson Cooper wowed the judges with his fancy footwork to claim the prestigious title of Australia’s first ever freestyle football champion! Graeson will now go on to represent Australia in the World Final in 2010.
Despite being up against 18-year-old Chris Beavon from Football Superstars, Graeson won the judges over in the end with his creative flair, unique tricks and skills and perfect ball control. When he was announced the winner, Graeson was so elated, he was lost for words. However, his words were replaced by celebrating with an entertaining victory dance that made the crowd go wild.
CONGRATULATIONS! Graesson! Good Luck in South Africa! :cheers:
