Neal Purchase Jr. | Local Legendz


Neal Purchase Jr. - Local Legendz from www.KORDUROY.tv on Vimeo.
Going against the grain doesn't always pan out for everyone. But for Neal Purchase Jr., he has found a way to maintain a free lifestyle while still having his hands in a number of creative ventures.

In this episode of Local Legendz in collaboration with Leatherman, Neal reflects back watching his father shape growing up and to the 1977 Stubbies where his inspiration from Michael Peterson fueled his desire to create boards that expand a surfer's approach, allowing that rider to ride different parts of the wave.

Is there someone of ‘legend’ status in your hood? We’d love to know! Submit their photo and a description to http://local-legendz.tumblr.com/submit or #local_legendz on Instagram and Twitter.
