In pair skating and ice dancing, one team may accomplish a Career Grand Slam skating together or one skater may achieve it with different partners.
Winning the gold medal at the Olympic Games in addition to the three major annual senior-level international competitions in a single season is called a "Golden Grand Slam" or "Golden Slam". A skater who wins all three major annual senior-level international competitions and the Olympic gold medal during his or her career is said to have achieved a "Career Golden Grand Slam" or "Career Golden Slam".
Winning all major international competitions at both junior level (World Junior Championships, Junior Grand Prix Final) and senior level (Olympic Games, World Championships, Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final, and either European Championships or Four Continents Championships) at any point during the course of a career is called a "Career Super Grand Slam" or "Super Slam".
The first World Figure Skating Championships ("WC") was held in 1896. The Grand Prix of Figure Skating Final ("GPF", formerly Champions Series Final) was inaugurated in 1995. The European Figure Skating Championships ("EC"), open to skaters from European countries, first took place in 1891. The International Skating Union (ISU) established the Four Continents Figure Skating Championships ("4CC") in 1999 to provide skaters representing non-European countries. So the possibility of being the reigning champion of all three major annual senior-level international competitions (WC, GPF, and EC or 4CC) did not exist until the 1995âÂÂ96 season.

The Junior Grand Prix Final ("JGPF", formerly ISU Junior Series Final) was established in the 1997âÂÂ98 season.
