Bio
Gold Coast celebrity and all around ripper, Luke "Munners" Munro was born and raised in Currumbin QLD, Australia, where he still resides. He developed his speed and effortless maneuvering style, growing up surfing Currumbin Alley. Long touted as one of Australia's most promising young exports, the well-built natural footer became successful early in his career when he won the World Junior's title in 2000.
He qualified for the 2007 ASP World Tour after finishing 18th on the AS{ WQS and received the final wildcard entry, garnering the last spot on the season's highly coveted Dream Tour. With a solid start on the Tour during his rookie season in 2007, the only direction for this Australian surfer to go is up.
