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

He’s considered of the most underground surf cinematographers, but quite the legend, too.

Greg Weaver has been making surf movies and shooting still photos for nearly 50 years.

In just over a week from now some of his amazing work will be on display in Orange County.

One of  Weaver’s most notable surf flicks is “Chasing the Lotus”, which was released in 2006.  That film is made up of some very rare 8mm film, still photos, and interviews with several surf legends from around the globe.

Everyone is welcome to attend the Greg Weaver art show which will include a night of art, food, drinks, music and movies.  If you’d like the chance to meet a legend, then mark your calenders for next Friday night.

When: Friday, August 28, 2009 from 6 to 10 p.m.

Where: Hurley HQ, 1945 Placentia Avenue, Costa Mesa 92627

Boards representing various eras and design were set up on display.

“It doesn’t seem like 20 years,” said Dan Forte, the man behind Dano Surfboards.

Dano bought his first blank 20 years ago, and made it under his mom’s house in Laguna Hills.

“It was kind of weird, but I rode it,” he said.

Soon, friends were hitting him up for boards. And a business began.

“It’s awesome. I get to do what I’m passionate about and love everyday. I’m truly blessed, you can’t ask for a better life,” he said.
