Ron Jon Surf Shop the majestic icon stamped deeply into the coquina of Cocoa Beach's foundation. A 1959 concept emerged as a father explained simple capitalism to his son.  You want 1, buy 3, and sell 2 for a profit. This tale of the need for a surfboard is as iconic as the original Ron Jon Surf Shop in Ship Bottom, Long Island Beach, New Jersey.  

Ron DiMenna and John Spodofora opened the original Ron Jon's in 1961. In 1962, Ron Jon Surf Shop Canaveral Pier had arrived.
