var jcarousel = $('.jcarousel').on('jcarousel:createend', function(event, carousel) {
                  do_something_with_current_slide(carousel); //in case if you need current slide on the begining
              })
              .on('jcarousel:animateend', function(event, carousel) {
                  do_something_with_current_slide(carousel); //do something with current slide right after animation ends
              })
              .jcarousel({
                    wrap: 'circular'                    
              });

function do_something_with_current_slide(carousel){
    li = carousel._target;  //li of current slide
    alert(li.attr('slide')); 
}

you can use any number of attributes to indentify slide and data inside
