The 2008 Four Continents Figure Skating Championships are the Four Continents Figure Skating Championships for the 2007/2008 season. Commonly abbreviated "4CC", they are an annual figure skating competition in which elite figure skaters compete for the title of Four Continents Champion. Skaters compete in the categories of men's singles, ladies singles, pairs, and ice dancing. The competition is open to skaters from a non-European Member nation of the International Skating Union. The four continents of the event's name refer to the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Australia (four of the continents represented in the Olympic rings, omitting Europe).
Unlike the other three ISU championships, each nation is allowed to enter 3 skaters/couples in each event, regardless of its skaters performance in the previous year's championships. The corresponding competition for European skaters was the 2008 European Figure Skating Championships.
The 2008 competition was held from February 11 through February 17, 2008, in the Seongsa Ice Rink in Goyang, South Korea.
Notes
* At this competition, Daisuke Takahashi of Japan set a new world record for the free skate (175.84) and the combined overall total (264.41) in men's singles.
