Neymar Cameo In New Nike Skateboarding Film
OK, we don't know too much when it comes to the world of skateboarding. But when we saw Santos superstar Neymar pop up in Nike's latest video for the Koston 2 (presumably a big-time skateboarding shoe) we thought it was worthy of a nod.
From the looks of things, Nike aren't afraid of getting their big-budget chequebook out when it comes to the 'SB' brand - the 'SB' standing for skateboarding, not the true SoccerBible 'SB' we all know and love! Just take a look at this all-star cast video. A rival to any of Nike's blockbuster videos in recent years.
Brazilian superstar Neymar pops up at the barbers, where he gives his famous locks some much needed styling. The film centres around Eric Koston performing a ledge trick that becomes fodder for word-of-mouth gossip, and soon grows to legendary status thanks to an all-star cast including grocery go-getter Tiger Woods.
The commercial was directed by Jon Humphries and music is by Otis Redding. Let us know what you think - maybe they've got Neymar brushing up on his acting skills before his own star-role in a Nike film!
