This former cancer patient’s trick shots are flipping marvellous

When he was 16, Andrew Streeter battled cancer and had to have a tumour removed from his neck, but to see him now you would be astonished to hear he’s ever been in anything but perfect health.

While many of us struggle with a roly-poly, the 20-year-old makes trick shots using his remarkable ability to flip – take a look.

“The main focus of my shots for me is pushing my body to extreme limits and testing the boundaries to which it can go,” Andrew told the Press Association.

“When I was 16 I had cancer and I felt like my body always let me down, so now I want to show myself just what I am capable of.”

“Overall I usually spend a few hours on each.

“The longest was my soccer throw in shot that I recently posted, it took me four days to make it with myself trying for three hours each time.”

“The trick to performing a perfect flip is just practising,” said Andrew. “Every day I work out and keep my conditioning up to make sure I can stay in shape to do them.

“When I am doing a flip shot, however, my trick is really only focusing on the flip, throwing the ball is the easy part, but if I focus on the flip and do the same thing every time the ball is eventually going to go in and I will be safe while flipping.”

“The future in reality is as big as I want it to be, if I continue down this road I can only see myself getting more exposure and reaching more people,” said Andrew. “However, I want to start incorporating my core message of positivity and a healthy lifestyle more into what I do.

“I want to inspire people to live life to their fullest and never lose sight on the best things in life.”
