The Black Hole surf shop opening

black-hole-surf-shopIf you can’t seem to find many old school core surf shops in this neck of the woods these days, then check this out.

Just recently a store called The Black Hole opened its doors in Costa Mesa.  The name sounds much more like a record store than a surf shop, and that it is…

The shop sits on a stretch of Newport Boulevard where you can find a handful of other cool stores.

Once inside you won’t find your typical surf inspired clothing brands, but more of the basics like retro longboards hanging from the ceiling, a few wetsuits, some old surf books and even a person who can fit you for a custom pair of surf trunks.

This Friday night is The Black Hole’s grand opening party.  It’s all ages and includes music by the Japanese Motors and Gantez Warrior, a BBQ and free cocktails for those 21 and over.

When: Friday, August 28th at 7:30 p.m

Where: The Black Hole, Costa Mesa

    Excellent!! Hopefully they don’t charge you for a bar of wax even after you’ve dropped serious cash like the glorified Tilly’s down the street.

    Tanner’s boards rip, rock and roll; retro sytle with beautiful to boot.

  • Ryan says:

    I think you are gravely mistaken. Tanner is a cool cat but don’t mention the words “oldschool core surf shop” without mentioning Russell Surfboards. Do your homework before you open your mouth kids.
