Ride the bull, win the buckle. Stay on for eight seconds and you’ve got a shot.

For Jorden Halvorsen and the women of the Elite Lady Bull Riders, it’s all about embracing the thrill. Their daring journeys, spending eight seconds at a time on the bulls, are showcased in the ABC News Studios series, “Not Her First Rodeo.”

“I knew I wanted to ride bulls pretty early on,” Halvorsen told On The Red Carpet. “I wanted to be the best version of a bull rider that I could be.”

Catalina Langlitz, Renata Nunes, Athena Rivera and Alexia Huffman are also featured in the series.

Halvorsen says she created the Elite Lady Bull Riders to help carve out a place in what’s known as a man’s world.

“We ride differently,” she said. “Being able to create something that women can come and feel comfortable in is just a really good feeling.”

“You need a touch of craziness,” she commented on the mindset needed to excel at bull riding. “However, the biggest part is having deep commitment and putting in hard work.”

Halvorsen says bull riding is a dream and she hopes “Not Her First Rodeo” will encourage others to go for what they want.

“I want viewers to realize that they can pursue their dreams, regardless of what they are,” she expressed. “Just chase after what ignites your passion in life.”

The first two episodes of “Not Her First Rodeo” premiere tonight at 10pm EST/ 9pm CST on Freeform. The entire docuseries will then stream on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ June 6.

The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Freeform, Hulu and this ABC station.
