Brian Canter (born June 25, 1987) is an American professional bull rider on the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) tour.
Canter started out riding at the semi-professional level, winning the 2004 Southern Extreme Bull Riding Association (SEBRA) year-end title. Once he turned 18 in June 2005, he bought his PBR permit. He first came on as an alternate in the 2005 PBR World Finals. He won money in 2005 to qualify for the 2006 Built Ford Tough Series (BFTS). His first full season on tour was 2006. He notched his first career win by winning the 2006 BFTS event in Billings, Montana, and that helped him qualify for the PBR World Finals in Las Vegas, Nevada.
