Skating across the ice dates back to early northern Europeans, who would use carved rib or shank bones strapped to their feet in conjunction with poles to glide across the ice and snow. But figure skating has roots in the United States, too; Jackson Haines, born in New York in 1840, capitalized on a dancing and skating craze in the leadup to the Civil War. Being the ballet master he was, he transformed skating from a leisure activity with rigid movements to a balletic competition sport that is seen today.

1908: London

While the first Olympic Winter Games were not officially contested until 1924, figure skating entered Olympic history in 1908 at the London Summer Games. Pairs, men’s, and ladies’ events were contested at that Olympics.

Sweden’s Ulrich Salchow, who invented the jump that bears his name, won the first gold medal. Andreas Krogh and Martin Stixrud, also both of Sweden, aided the medal sweep by winning silver and bronze, respectively.

Madge Syers of Great Britain won the first ladies figure skating gold medal and was joined on the podium by countrywoman Dorothy Greenhough-Smith, who won bronze. Germany’s Elsa Rendschmidt won the silver.

Syers, 20, won a bronze in the pairs event alongside Edgar Syers, the oldest Olympic figure skating gold medalist. He was 45 years, 225 days old. Pairs gold went to Germany’s Anna Hubler and Heinrich Burger and Great Britain’s Phyllis Johnson and James Johnson took the silver.

Men’s, ladies’ and pairs events were again contested at the 1920 Antwerp Summer Games. Sweden’s Gillis Grafstrom won the men’s singles gold medal in 1920, 1924 and 1928, becoming the first athlete in a winter sport to win three gold medals in the same event. He also won silver in 1932, and is tied for the title as the most decorated Olympic figure skater with Russia’s Yevgeni Plushenko.

Sweden’s skaters took the one and two spots in the ladies event, with Magda Julin-Mauroy winning the gold and Svea Noren winning the silver. The United States’ Theresa Weld earned the bronze.

Finland’s Ludovika Jakobsson-Eilers and Walter Jakobssen took home pairs gold. They are the oldest Olympic gold medalsts: Jakobsson-Eilers was 35 years and 274 days old while Jakobssen was 38 years, 79 days old. Alexia Bryn-Schoien and Yngvar Bryn, of Norway took the silver ahead of Great Britain’s Phyllis Johnson and Basil Williams. Bryn ran in the 200m and 400m races, as 1920 was a Summer Olympics.

1924: Chamonix

In 1924, the Winter Games began in Chamonix, France. Figure skating is one of six sports that have appeared in every Winter Games. The others are hockey, speed skating, cross-country skiing, Nordic combined and ski jumping.

1928: St. Moritz

Sweden’s Gillis Grafstrom won again, becoming the first winter sport athlete to win three consecutive gold medals in the same event. He added to his medal haul with a silver in 1932, and remains the most decorated figure skater ever. Willy Bockl again took home a silver medal, while Robert von Zeebroeck of Belgium stood on the podium for bronze.

Norway’s Sonja Henie, who finished eighth at the 1924 Olympics, became the Olympic gold medalist in St. Moritz. Fritzi Burger of Austria took home the silver while Beatrix Loughran of the U.S. captured the bronze medal.

Cecilia Colledge, from Great Britain, and Sweden’s Vivi-Anne Hulten.

Great Britian’s Jeannette Altwegg improved on her 1948 results to move from bronze to gold in Oslo. Tenley Albright, from the United States, won the silver and France’s Jacqueline du Bief claimed the bronze.

Three sibling teams stood on the podium in Oslo’s pairs event: Germany’s Ria and Paul Falk (gold), the U.S.’ Karol and Michael Kennedy (silver), and Hungary’s Marianna and Laszlo Nagy (bronze).

1956: Cortina D'Ampezzo

The American men repeated Sweden’s 1908 feat by sweeping the medal podium, the only other time this has happened in figure skating. Hayes Alan Jenkins (gold), Ronald Robertson (silver) and David Jenkins (bronze) won medals. The Jenkins brothers are the only brothers to win medals in figure skating. They are also the first brothers to both win Winter Olympic gold medals, as David won the men’s competition in 1960.

Lyudmila Belousova and Oleg Protopopov (from rival Soviet cities, Moscow and St. Petersburg) teamed to win gold in Innsbruck, beginning a pairs tradition in the country. Germany’s Marika Kilius and Hans-Jurgen Baumler repeated as silver medalists while Canada’s Debbi Wilkes and Guy Revell earned the bronze. At one point, the German pair was stripped of their medals due to their newly-professional status, elevating the Canadians to silver; later the International Olympic Committee revised their decision and both pairs were credited with silver medals.

Ukraine’s Oksana Baiul out-skated the U.S.’ Nancy Kerrigan to take the top spot on the Lillehammer podium. Chen Lu of China won the bronze. The other American woman in the field, Tonya Harding, was finished eighth.

The on ice action was nothing compared to what was going on behind the scenes. At a practice during the 1994 U.S. Nationals, Kerrigan was struck in the knee by someone and suffered severe bruising and a strained knee. As it turns out, the attack was not random, and was actually working on behalf of Harding’s husband. The in-depth documentary “Nancy & Tonya” aired during NBC’s coverage of the 2014 Olympics.

This time representing Russia, Ekaterina Gordeyeva and Sergei Grinkov won their second gold medal in the pairs event.

The men’s podium in 1998 looked much like the one from 1994. A Russian man, Ilya Kulik, took the gold; Elvis Stojko took home the silver and Philippe Candeloro earned the bronze.

Tara Lipinski took gold in Nagano, Japan and became the youngest person to win a gold medal in an individual event at the Winter Olympics. She was 15 years and 255 days old when she outskated Michelle Kwan, 17, who earned the silver. Chen Lu of China won the bronze for a second consecutive Games.

Sarah Hughes made it a second consecutive gold for the United States when she won in Salt Lake City. Courntywoman Michelle Kwan joined her on the podium by winning a bronze. Russia’s Irina Slutskaya took home the silver.

After the pairs event from Salt Lake City, a new figure skating judging event was created: instead of the previous 6.0 system, base values were assigned to elements and points were subtracted as mistakes were made. It was designed to be less corrupt, as it was discovered pressure was put on a judge in 2002 to vote for a certain outcome. Two sets of gold medals were ultimately awarded: Russians Yelena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze as well as Canadians Jamie Sale and David Pelletier. China’s Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo earned the bronze.

In a competition marred by the suspicion the results were predetermined and linked to deals made about the pairs competition, France’s Marina Anissina and Gwendal Piezerat captured ice dance gold. Irina Lobacheva and Ilya Averbukh of Russia took home the silver medal.

Japan’s Shizuka Arakawa won gold in Torino ahead of the U.S.’ Sasha Cohen, who earned the silver. Russia’s Irina Slutskaya took home a bronze medal.

Tatiana Totmianina and Masim Marinin restored the Russian pairs tradition, winning the gold. China earned the remaining two podium spots: Zhang Dan and Zhang Hao (no relation) won the silver medal, and Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo repeated as bronze medalists.  

Russians Tatiana Navka and Roman Kostomarov won gold in ice dance. The U.S.’ Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto finished with the silver medal, the best ever finish at the time. Ukraine’s Elena Grushina and Ruslan Goncharov took home the bronze.

2010: Vancouver

The United States’ Evan Lysacek won gold, flipping the script on Russia’s Yevgeni Plushenko, who earned the silver medal. Japan’s Daisuke Takahashi claimed the bronze medal. Lysacek is the most recent men’s gold medalist from the United States.

For years, South Korea’s Yuna Kim and Japan’s Mao Asada had been rivals on the world stage. But at the Vancouver Games, Kim came away with the gold and Asada claimed the silver. In front of a home crowd, Canada’s Joannie Rochette earned the bronze medal.

China earned two places on the pairs podium: Shen Xue and Zhao Hangbo won the gold, while Pang Qing and Jian Tong won the silver. Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy, competing for Germany, claimed the bronze.

Canadian ice dance team Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir became the first North Americans to win Olympic gold in their event, doing so in front of a home crowd in Vancouver.

2014: Sochi

Yuzuru Hanyu of Japan won his country’s first ever figure skating gold medal, while Patrick Chan of Canada earned the silver. Denis Ten, of Kazakhstan, won the bronze medal; it was the first figure skating medal in an Olympics for his country. Yevgeni Plushenko, competing in his fourth Olympics, withdrew minutes before the start his program.

Adelina Sotnikova of Russia stunned South Korea’s Yuna Kim to claim the gold, the first ever gold medal in ladies figure skating for Russia. Kim claimed the silver – though her fans started petitions for the scores to be reviewed – and Carolina Kostner of Italy, competing in her third Olympics, won the bronze.

In the pairs event, Russia placed two couples on the podium: Tatyana Volosozhar and Maksim Trankov won the gold, followed by Ksenia Stolbova and Fedor Klimov for the silver. Germany’s Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy won the bronze.

Meryl Davis and Charlie White of the United States won their country’s first-ever ice dance gold medal ahead of Canadian rivals and training partners (and 2010 ice dance Olympic gold medalists) Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir. Russians Elena Ilinykh and Nikita Katsalapov took the bronze.

The Sochi Olympics saw a new figure skating event introduced: the team event.

The United States won two bronze medals. The Shibutani siblings, Maia and Alex, finished third in the ice dance while the nation took bronze in the team event. Star Nathan Chen shockingly missed out on a medal, finishing fourth overall after a 17th-place finish in the short program, but a first-place finish in the free skate. He did, however, become the first skater to land a quad flip at the Olympics.

Alina Zagitova and Evgenia Medvedeva, athletes representing the Olympic Athletes from Russia, won gold and silver in ladies' singles. Japan went 1-2 in men's singles, with Yuzuru Hanyu repeating as the gold medalist and Shoma Uno taking silver. 

Germany's Aljona Savchenko and Bruno Massot won the pairs skating event, followed by China's Sui Wenjing and Han Cong.
