KNOWN GLOBALLY FOR HIS TECHNICAL PRECISION AND HIS TRADEMARK "MANNY SLAYS ALL" SMILE, PUERTO RICAN LEGEND MANNY SANTIAGO IS ONE OF THE MOST POSITIVE AND CHARISMATIC FIGURES IN STREET SKATEBOARDING. MANNY HAS BECOME A CORNERSTONE OF THE JACKALOPE FAMILY, SHOWCASING HIS VERSATILITY BOTH ON AND OFF THE BOARD. IN 2024, HE PROVED HIS ELITE SKILLS BY SECURING A 2ND PLACE PODIUM FINISH IN THE STREET CONTEST AT JACKALOPE MISSISSAUGA.
HIS INVOLVEMENT EVOLVED IN 2025 AS HE TOOK OVER THE MICROPHONE AS OUR STREET MC AND SERVED AS A JUDGE FOR THE GOLDEN TICKETS. THIS YEAR, MANNY TAKES ON AN EVEN MORE PIVOTAL ROLE AS OUR OFFICIAL GOLDEN TICKET SCOUT, USING HIS VETERAN EYE TO HUNT FOR THE NEXT BREAKOUT TALENTS ACROSS THE TOUR. WHETHER HE’S COMPETING, COMMENTATING, OR RECOGNIZING THE NEXT GENERATION, MANNY’S ENERGY IS THE HEARTBEAT OF THE STREET SCENE.
