Are some of your crew loosing the buzz and getting you down? Do you feel like your boys have aged before their time?

Forget those guys for a week and go shredding with some grommets.

Grommies go hard no matter what.

They charge the big days; but they also surf when the waves suck and still get stoked.

Grommets push their limits and psych each other up all day. There’s a lot of laughs thrown in the mix and boy do they progress FAST!

Being a grommet does have its downsides though. Shan Railton says their main concerns are getting the bash from older surfers, getting constantly dropped in on, and being dunny flushed in the local loos.

Shan puts this down to one thing: Jealousy. Yip that’s right. Deep down we all know grommies have got it sweet.

You can learn a lot from these young guns. Their raw enthusiasm will get you amped and they might even teach you a few new tricks if you promise not to smash them.
