Cody Snyder

In 1983 Snyder made history by becoming the first Canadian to be crowned the PRCA’s World Champion bull rider. He qualified for the NFR three additional times, and was the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association’s champion in 1986. Born and raised in Redcliff, Alberta, Snyder grew up in a world where bull riding quickly became second nature to the World Champion. Snyder’s first official rodeo experience occurred at the age of five, when he rode a calf in a local competition. Running past a barrel, knocking him off; Snyder got up, dusted himself off, and never looked back. Upon his retirement in 1993, Cody never left the bull riding business. Along with his wife and business partner Rhonda Snyder, Cody created a bull riding production company called Cody Snyder Bullbustin’ Inc. To date, Bullbustin’ Inc. has produced over 400 events across North America. Bullbustin has produced various events such as the PBR Canadian National Finals, charity events, private events, PRCA “Xtreme” events and many more. Over two million dollars has been raised for various charities across Canada since Bullbustin’ came to life 25 years ago. Snyder has been and dominant force in the growth and awareness of professional bull riding across the country, dedicating his time mentoring and developing the next generation of young bull riders who are shaping the sport.
