Introducing HANAH Hero Ramón Navarro


Legendary surfer, activist Ramón knows a thing or two about fueling for Chilean big waves

From his fisherman father, HANAH Hero Ramón Navarro learned how to dive, swim and respect the ocean at a very young age. It was not until Ramon was 13 when he was given his first surfboard and he found his true calling. Shortly after, Ramón began to compete in national surfing competitions where he moved up the ranks quickly. On a quest for continued improvement, in 1999 he sold his board to fly to California where he worked as a gardener, builder and sold empanadas until he was able to make enough money to travel to Hawaii to connect with many of his heroes and legends of international surfing.

In 2001, Ramón became the first professional surfer in Chile to become a sponsored athlete. In 2006 he won the Punta de Lobos Ceremonial which opened the doors to achieve his greatest dream: participating in the Eddie Aikau Contest in Hawaii, which was the biggest surfing event in the world. He placed 5th in the tournament while surfing the biggest wave he’d ever caught. From there, you’ll find Ramón cruising around Fiji or Chile on the hunt for big waves.

Pre-surf power: HANAH Hero Ramón Navarro makes his Guayakí Mate shake

Ramón Navarro has been surfing since he was a child and learned early that having a clean fuel source keeps him focused and energized for long hours in the ocean. Ramón has come to love the light and refreshing combination Guayakí Yerba Mate caffeine boost with the herbal blend of adaptogens, vitamins and minerals of HANAH ONE and Ashwagandha+.

  • ½ cup whole organic oats
