Justin became the 2005 pbr champion on camo for 75 pts. In 2003 Justin rode a bull with broken ribs and a punctured lung. Justin is about riding every bull he can get on. When he was a kid he was a safety on his football team and was really good at wrestling too.
“The thing that’s helped me the most, and the reason I ride the way I do, is that from the time I was a little kid until now, I would always take a horse and line up obstacles and have him jump over them without any saddle,” he reminisced, “In what we do, there are certain muscles that you just can’t find any way to work through weights. Riding bareback like that was a way to help my balance and use muscles that you don’t normally use-except when you’re riding bulls,” he said while talking about how he got so good at bullriding.
I just like him cause he's awesome. Ain't many people that will ride hurt and not cry about it. He's a real man.
