Neal Purchase Jr.
In today's episode of Quivercast, we have an inspiring conversation with legendary surfboard shaper Neal Purchase Jr @nealpurchasejnr. Neal takes us back to his teenage years, sharing vivid memories of catching his first killer barrel, with his dad and sister proudly watching from the shore. Though he excelled in the amateur surfing circuit during his mid-teens, Neal soon realized that competitive surfing wasn't his true calling. With a father who was also a shaper, Neal naturally gravitated towards shaping boards, crafting designs that broke away from the conventional styles of the time.
Now in his 50s, Neal Purchase Jr. continues to surf with the same passion and skill he had in his youth. He discusses how his surfboards are tailored for the everyday surfer, focusing on practicality and performance. Neal's dedication to the craft remains as strong as ever, and his love for shaping boards is unwavering. Join us as we delve into Neal's unique journey, exploring his innovative approach to surfboard shaping and his enduring love for the ocean.
