This story started many year ago, around 1991, when our growing passion for skateboard magazines pushed us to “do something” leading us to start an editorial project under the name of “Along the way”.

At that time we were too young to make a skateboard magazine and computers were far from today’s IMacs. The only affordable way to make our voice being heard were fanzines…
Days and nights spent glueing and photocopying…

Our passion for magazines and skateboarding pushed us to start shooting photos and contributing to early days skateboard magazines.

Everything came just natural and, even our studies were taking us far away from our “passion”, we kept on following our dreams, giving 100% and make many of them come true.

We have spent the most of our lives pushing our boards and working for skateboard magazines.

A the beginning of 2010 we realized the time for a change had come and so we started this new adventure called “a brief glance skateboard mag” in a world where all the rules seemed to be subverted, again we felt the need “to do something”.

A new beginning, taking advantage of modern technologies opportunities and trying our best to do something good.

a brief glance skateboard magazine started as a digital skateboard magazines when web magazines were something really, really, new. Soon after we started also printing it on hi-quality paper and distributed all over Europe.

We love good news.
