There are many things that set Titus Kinimaka apart. First, he is a native Hawaiian. Kauai born and raised, Titus is a legendary big wave surfer and at 49 is rated number eight in the world on the professional big wave circuit.

Titus has many accomplishments, including 25 years as a lifeguard in the treacherous waters of Kauai’s famed North Shore as well as 35 years of big-wave riding experience. Titus comes from a long line of surfers, who taught him the Hawaiian sport of Kings. As the owner of the Titus Kinimaka Hawaiian School of Surfing, he is the fourth generation of teachers in his family.

Another thing that sets Titus apart is that he is a long time “Zoner” having used Dr Sears’ fatty acids for 15 years now.

“The Zone of today is so evolved from the old days, and it has never been easier to get in the Zone,” he said.

To Titus being in the Zone “is like money in the bank, with interest.”

“Riding big waves is demanding, and you need to be totally focused. The OmegaRx gives me the edge,” he said. “I love the bars because they satisfy me for hours in the water without feeling too full.”

Titus likes starting his day with a Zone shake, because he trains in the early morning.

“With Dr Sears’ products, I have managed to trim lots of time off my run, swim, and biking easily. I use the Ribose to help,” he said.

Titus was introduced to the Zone more than 15 years ago by Dave Stewart, brother of Mike Stewart, both longtime Zone advocates and Kauai residents. Mike has a mission to promote the Zone concept throughout Hawaii because of the high incidence of diabetes, obesity, heart disease and depression.

“The Hawaiians are a special people who have not done well with the ‘Western high-carb diet’. It is almost like they feel diabetes is automatic among generations, but it isn’t,” Mike said. “The simple concepts of the Zone will help preserve and protect a rare and precious people."

Titus is a perfect spokesman for the cause.

Titus lives in Anahola on Kauai’s North Shore with his wife and two daughters, who are also avid surfers. If you want to learn more about this Hawaiian legend and accomplished musician, you can purchase a DVD made about his life called “Nihi” at www.alohafilms.com.
