Beginnings
It all started back in 1997 on our parents’ dodgy PC. We were fuelled by sweets and cheap Malaysian food. In 2003, we started First Floor Publishing to have a home for all three magazines – Manual, Spoke and the now-defunct Staple.
Now
Manual Magazine is now New Zealand’s leading skateboarding culture magazine and website, featuring national and international coverage of skateboarding, music and art, with an emphasis on quality photography, illustration and graphic design.
