Cubans and J-Lo rejoice!
South Florida pretty much has everything. Cubans, Cuban food, neon lights, Cuban cigars, Pitbull, Pitbull feat. J-Lo, Pitbull feat. Ke$ha, Pitbull feat. Gaga etc.
Well, the rich get richer and now South Florida is getting…
… A KELLY SLATER WAVE RANCH!
It is fitting etc. since Kelly Slater is actually from Florida and it is also fitting that the announcement was made on day one of professional ocean surfing. But who needs ocean surfing when you’ve got a wave ranch! Shall we read a li’l touch in South Florida’s Biz Journal?
It would be cruel not to!
On March 23, the Palm Beach County Commission will hold a zoning hearing to consider a request to amend the county’s “planned industrial park” regulation to allow large scale commercial recreation facilities. While this would apply countywide, the specific purpose of the amendment would be to allow the Surf Ranch Florida with a man-made surfing lake to be developed on an 80-acre parcel within the Palm Beach Park of Commerce.
The Palm Beach Park of Commerce, also known as First Park South Florida, consists of 1,323 acres at the intersection of Bee Line Highway and Park of Commerce Boulevard west of Jupiter. It’s several miles west of the population center, and quite a long drive from the beach.
The Surf Ranch would be developed on the extreme northwest corner of the Park of Commerce, according to the application. It describes the project as a concrete man-made lake of about 13 acres, measuring 2,000 feet long by 185 feet wide.
Do you live in South Florida? Do you know where this is? Will you be in line opening day? Are you Pitbull?

Single pool system is only a scam to get into a sunscreen and beer business. Not about selling waves.
I hear all the money is in sunscreen.
Enjoy! Got one in his second year, having way more fun than me..
it’s a big enough pool for casey anthony to drown her future children there.
Ha!
Pool in California is roughly a little over 11 acres via Google Earth. They said the new one would be 13 acres but 2000 x 185 only comes out as 8.5 acres, 25% smaller.
Well the WSL are in charge now and they really aren’t too good with numbers. Just the color red.
Definitely no chance of a rogue West set
Si, soy Pit Bull
I had a kind of sneaking suspicion…..
My girlfriend is from Chile, and listens to that crap all the time. I like music that either A) makes me want to hug someone, or B) makes me want to punch someone. Reggaeton makes me feel like a gacked out Telletubby who can’t stop jumping in place, drenched in my cocaine fever sweat.
