Kore DVD case.

Status: Found

Date found: 19 Mar 2024

The Kore videos are a series of 3 DVDs (Kore Sk8, Kore Surf and Kore FMX) which showcased various athletes from various sport companies performing stunts, sometimes interspersed with short comedy skits. The DVDs were a promotion with the Australian cereal Nutri-Grain and copies of the DVDs are scarce to find after its initial release.

Date Ambiguity

There is some ambiguity with when the Kore videos were released. The DVD cover and Kore FMX's Filmogs page shows the copyright year being 2003 but in the credits of both Kore Sk8 and Kore Surf the copyright year is listed as 2004. The "Date Modified" dates for both Kore Sk8 and Kore Surf are from 2003 as well. Due to limited information, there's no way of confirming which one is true.

On August 30th, 2022, Internet Archive user ZKY2K obtained the Kore SK8 DVD, ripped its contents, and uploaded them to the Internet Archive respectively. Two years later, on March 18th and 19th, 2024, Internet Archive user Peter Hernandez933 ripped the contents of his own DVD of Kore Surf and Kore FMX and uploaded them to the Internet Archive, rendering the whole DVD run available to be watched.
