Watch alot of videos on it and memorize them. Once you know exactly what they're doing (Balance, foot placements etc.) put it into practise and give it about 50 attempts before stopping and trying again tomorrow. There isn't any other way!

By the 'joy' video do you mean the one in the jog bonito campaign (this one at 30sec: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/98694/joy_ronaldinho/), because if you do then I have no idea how he does it! It's like he touches the ball and it immediately pops like 6 feet straight in the air. That move has been puzzling me ever since I saw it, and I am beginning to have a sneaking suspicion that it's fake. Though you can never say what's fake with Ronaldinho...
Anyway, in order to do the simpler sombrero that is possible even if you're not Ronaldinho, all you have to do is a footstall and then kinda flick it into the air. Here's an example or two: http://expertfootball.com/training/drib ... mbrero.php http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDx6SFldQYM (though that one's more a chip than a flick) After watching those two videos I've come to realize that the sombrero is more like a chip, and my version that I described above is a lot different, though it seems to work for me...

the flickup ronnie does is as Sputnik said, is a 'scoop n hit' - he does it again in the 'make the ball happy' video [0:30] in a way that is much easier to learn
learn it on grass or carpet with barefeet first...try scooping the ball up first, then try and get a touch on it. i learnt by firstly hitting it to the side instead of back over my head...then when i was more confident i started hitting it over my head  Freestyle Videos: http://youtube.com/fsadelaide / http://vimeo.com/mattfs |
