Built for the next generation charging hard, the Futures JJF Grom Honeycomb Thruster – X-Small is a re-issue of John John Florence’s original 2008 Signature Skull model, back when he was just a hundred-pound grom lighting up the North Shore. This isn’t a watered-down fin. It’s a properly tuned, performance-focused template scaled specifically for lighter surfers between 35–50kgs.

Sitting in the Neutral (all-around) template category, this extra-small thruster delivers a balanced, versatile feel across beach breaks, points and everyday conditions. The refined tip creates a looser, more responsive feel underfoot, making it easier for younger surfers to pivot, release and progress their turns without feeling locked in. Built in Honeycomb construction, the fin stays lightweight with a balanced flex pattern, meaning smooth drive off the bottom, controlled release off the top, and enough forgiveness to build confidence.

With a Ride Number of 5.4 (Balanced), this fin sits right in the sweet spot, not overly stiff, not overly loose, making it ideal for performance grom shortboards and step-up models as skills develop.

These fins pair perfectly with the Power Tiger Grom board from Pyzel, a quality grom leash, grom traction pad to complete a properly dialled setup.
