Filler.
When I did the week of vert sequences, I was thinking of a series of ads that World Industries did in 1998. A quick browsing of the Chrome Ball Incident turned up nothing so I tracked them down myself. For Flame Boy/Wet Willy era World, they weren't terrible because they left those characters out. However, World only ran four ads in the series so I needed something else to fill out the week. That's why it is a double shot of Kareem and Enrique. Both of these are sick photos, especially Kareem's ollie, that are ruined with some little kiddie cartoons. In an era that was defined by fresh or not, I'm surprised skaters stuck with World.
There was a full size poster of the Kareem ad. I don't think it had the characters on it.
In a related note, CCS is doing a reissue of some assorted Flame Boy and Wet Willy boards and clothing. Nostalgia has maybe finally worn out its welcome.
