The Four Continents Figure Skating Championships is an annual figure skating competition. The 2007 championships took place at the World Arena in Colorado Springs, USA from February 7 to 10, 2007. Skaters competed in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dancing. The event was open to skaters from non-European member nations of the International Skating Union. Unlike other ISU championships, each nation was allowed to enter 3 skaters/couples in each event, regardless of its skaters performance in the previous championships. The corresponding competition for European skaters was the 2007 European Figure Skating Championships.
Jessica Dubé / Bryce Davison did not complete their free skating and so automatically withdrew. During a side-by-side camel spin, the two drifted too close to each other, and Davison's blade hit Dubé in the face. She was immediately taken to the hospital and underwent surgery to repair the damage. Dubé later made a complete recovery and the two were able to compete at the 2007 World Figure Skating Championships.
