Betty Zine
It all began in Lockdown… with the hope of keeping the surfing world entertained during these crazy times. We can actually remember this time last year when the Betty Zine was released! They may be new to the scene but that’s not to say they don’t offer some of NZ’s best surfing related content that the country has to offer!
From their base in Muriwai, they now boast a print and online magazine, online shop, business directory, online blog, social media channels, email newsletters and even product and board reviews!
And their goal still remains the same; to showcase [New Zealand’s] women, the work that they do, the things that they create and the waves that they ride.
