  Not many people are lucky enough to have a job that finds them in boardshorts everyday. It’s just a fact.

However, there’s a select few who’ve really thought about this vocation thing, and have sculpted their lifestyle so that they can spend the majority of the sunlight hours wearing boardshorts. These are the stories of these visionaries. Welcome to a Sunny Disposition.   Now, let’s meet:   Corey Munn   Welcome to the warm north-east of Australia, where the water’s crisp and the surfing is user-friendly. Corey Munn is a gent who’s based his life around these conditions as a surfboard-shaper. Here, Corey talks about the concept of learning a new craft – whether it’s riding waves or creating the boards to do it – and offers us a glimpse into his very fortunate lifestyle. Trunks: A must.   Breeze through summer with Rhythm’s boardshort range, here.
