Omar’s first (rectangle) version of the “Magic Carpet” (also referred to as “Flying Carpet” or “Arabian Nights”) came out early 1990 but with graphics starting to change every 6 months in conjunction with the ASR (Action Sports Retailer) trade show it was already time for an update for the September event.
The genie graphic was just too f’kn rad to axe completely so it was given a makeover by the legendary artist Andy Jenkins. With Omar moving up in the pro ranks and becoming more known, this version of the board was perhaps the best selling of all his boards. This reissue is manufactured and screen printed to the original specifications, these will also be numbered and signed by Omar.
