Panagiotis Manaras describes himself as a simple man, crazy enough to do some extreme moves on his BMX and always positive.

With a deep-rooted love for riding his BMX regardless of the terrain, Greek athlete Panagiotis has even built a mini-ramp at home complete with a spine so he, his brother and their friends can practice round the clock. The Bogiati Land park is fast becoming a hotspot for fellow riders.

Since reaching a standard worthy of contest invites, Panagiotis spends much of his time travelling around Europe and has tested his mettle in Germany, Italy, Austria and Estonia which he particularly loved.

Among the contests you can find him at are the Simpel Sessions and at both the BMX World Championships and BMX Masters. He’s also made it to the USA, where he went to the Woodward Camp and also visited New York City.
