There is no question about the fact that this man and his wife Patricia De Wispelaere are the most experienced riders in Jet Raid history since they have participated from the first race ever held under the name of Jet Raid. 2014 will be the year to remember for them since they will not participate to Akropolis Jet Raid and in other words to the Jet Raid race for the first time since its interception. Their absence will be a big lose for Akropolis Jet Raid family.

21 time National Champion of Greece, Akis Malouchos who also is the heart and soul of the organization of Akropolis Jet Raid for 4 years in a row he revealed that he is already testing a tricky Kawasaki Ultra set up. Apart from the fact that he is using an new R&D Reprogrammed ECU with Offshore mapping he did not mention any other secrets of his new race boat. He is the only Greek rider who ever stepped on the podium of Akropolis Jet Raid.

Father and son, a unique team from Germany that enjoys Akropolis Jet Raid for another year. Both race in F2 class on a Kawasaki Ultra 300X. Usually Tottewitz team is along with Tomas Pazler from Chec Rep who has also signed for this year event. It is a pleasure to see them again in Greece in a great International event.

Jet Raid Organization has been organizing Offshore/Endurance races usually called the Dakar of water for 16 years. This kind of races have raised the level of performance and athletes training to withstand the unreliable torture of 6 days racing. For fourth consecutive year Jet Raid Organization will put an extreme race on the Greek waters. This year the race will be held in South of Peloponysos and the riders will experience a new level of competition by visiting the exciting Island of Kithira and the Tropical sand of Island Elafonysos.
