With Montgomery, Arnold qualified twice for the Junior Grand Prix Final and twice placed in the top ten at the World Junior Championships.

He teamed up with Meagan Duhamel in the spring of 2004.[1] They were the first pair to land a side-by-side triple Lutz jump in competition, which they achieved at the 2005 Canadian Figure Skating Championships.[2] At the 2005 World Junior Figure Skating Championships, they became the first team to land a throw triple Lutz jump in international competition.[3]
