Canter was kicked in the head on a trampoline at an action‑sports camp when he was 13, fracturing his skull in four places and leaving him in a coma for four days. Doctors told him never to snowboard again, but he defied them, undergoing surgery and relearning basic functions before returning to the sport.
At the Winter Olympics, Canter landed a 1980‑degree spin on his final run, earning a score that secured him third place. The bronze medal marks a triumphant comeback and a testament to his perseverance.
