This shop is closed! But it was fun while it lasted.

A surf store with a skate ramp inside the store is nothing new in Southern California. There is a huge skate store and park, Van's at The Block in Orange. But a skate park and store just for girls is pretty cool, indeed. The ramp and store are designed to promote athletics and sports for girls and women though guys have taken a shine to it recently, too.

The clothing lines inside the store are strictly girls. The only things that guys may find useful are decorative beach towels and sunglasses. They might also enjoy the store for the colorful surfboards and gifts they can buy chicks.  The girl shown in the photo, Mattie, is a young up and coming surfer doing well in local competitions.  She is a member of the HB Wahine's All Girls Surf Club. The board she is holding was painted by shop owner, Andrea. This board was pre-sold but there are many more designs and sizes perfect for girls and women.  If you are a female wanting to enter the surfing arena and looking for an extra push, you'll find it at HB Wahine All Girl Boarding House where Surf, Skate and Snow are celebrated in the shop, on the water, on the street and on the slopes.  HB Wahine, 301 Main Street, #102, Huntington Beach, California  92648   Call: (714) 969-9399. www.hbwahine. com
