Mike
Varga

Canada’s Mike Varga is a six-time X Games medalist known for landing some of the heaviest tricks in BMX Park Best Trick history—including the first-ever 1260 in competition. He’s a three-time gold medalist in the discipline and doubled up on hardware at Ventura 2024 with bronze in Dirt and silver in Park Best Trick. Varga lives in Whitby, Ontario, with his 99-year-old grandmother Elizabeth, his fiancée Haven Sharkey (he proposed just before XG Ventura 2024), and his dad. During the pandemic, he was so concerned with protecting her that he spent a year using a ladder to access his second story bedroom to avoid crossing paths with her in the house. A ladder. Through a Canadian winter.
