In 2005-06, Montgomery became the first Canadian man to win the Europa Cup Overall men’s title, and is now considered one of Canada’s top skeleton athletes.

On February 19, 2010, Montgomery won his first Olympic Gold medal at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics at the Whistler Sliding Centre.

Fans were delighted that Montgomery’s personality shone through following his victory; his determination, unwavering love for Canada and sense of humour have made him a favourite.

His popularity transcends into his Discovery Network reality travel show airing November 2010, Best. Trip. Ever., where Montgomery and his adrenaline-seeking peers drive across British Columbia searching for adventure and extreme sport 'fix'.

When not training or competing, Montgomery works as a sales consultant and automobile auctioneer in Calgary.
