THE LEGEND
BUILT IN THE
ARENA
Zeke Thurston (born July 15, 1994) is a Canadian professional rodeo cowboy from Big Valley, Alberta, who specializes in saddle bronc riding. Born into a rodeo family — his father and grandfather both competed professionally — Zeke was riding before he could walk.
He is a four-time PRCA World Champion in Saddle Bronc Riding, claiming titles in 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025. His fluid, powerful, and fearlessly aggressive style has made him one of the most dominant bronc riders of his generation.
Now, Zeke is passing that knowledge forward — through his exclusive bronc school in Big Valley, a three-part online master class series, and his presence at rodeos across North America. Every ride is a lesson. Every lesson is a legacy.
