Fueling a freestyler: Meet one of NYC’s greatest football freestylers and what fuels him and his family

The sport of soccer goes by many names with one that everyone can agree on: The Beautiful Game. Soccer transcends the fields it’s played on and breaks through into art and everyday life.

One New York freestyler epitomizes turning the sport into a daily routine with style and family at his core.

Meet Frankie Flo. A soccer freestyler who has performed on the world’s largest stages, a proud father, peanut lover and artist with the ball at his feet.

Frankie Flo has been freestyling for over 17 years dazzling audiences and his fans with incredible technique on the ball. He aspires not only to entertain but to inspire the next generation of soccer players and fans in the United States.

The growth of the sport in the country in recent years has been tremendous. Frankie Flo demonstrates how he incorporates soccer and its culture into his daily lifestyle. 

Two items that go hand-and-hand in Frankie Flo’s life are soccer and peanuts. He combines the two passions better than a PB&J, which he touts he makes the best of.

Peanuts have more protein than any nut (7g per serving), containing more than 30 essential vitamins and minerals.

Another key element to Frankie Flo is fatherhood. His two-year-old son Luca is his sous-chef and partner in crime. The two spend all their time together, create PB&J sandwiches and always cheers their food before eating.

Here’s the details behind the Frankie Flo special which fuels him to freestyling, entertaining and fathering.
