Xcel
There are five levels of Xcel. Each level is based on progressively harder requirements than the previous level. The five levels of Xcel are Xcel Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond.
Scoring in Xcel is based on the routine’s Start Value (which is based on Special Requirements, Value Part Requirements, and Execution and Artistry Points) minus total Deductions (which is the total of Execution Deductions, General Deductions, and Chief Deductions). Don’t worry, we’ll explain all the details in Xcel Scoring!
