The New Nike Freestyle Ads

Have you seen this with the stickman?
It's great, I've only seen the soccer one and oh what I would give to have that kind of ball control. It's amazing stuff, especially when Ronladinho does those 3 simultaneous flicks where he brings his leg over the ball and catches it each time. On a good day I can get that once but I cant catch it again I have to volley it.
Oh and when the stickman switches the ball with his head at the end, funny stuff.
Best current ad at the moment imo. Now all I need is for it to stop raining so I can get out there and start practising these tricks again after all summer is just around the corner.

oh www.nikefreestyle.com you can get the ads from there.

[edit]Anybody remember the ad where they go looking for the football and they fight the robots? Louis Van Gaal is the boss and Davids, Campbel, Nakata and a few others were in it. Anybody know it's name or where I can get it?[/edit]

I saw the tv basketball one, and (unlike most ads) it actually caught and held my attention for the duration. The best bit was at the end when the stick-guy slam dunked the ball and his aarms were left holding on to the basket.
