    WAG Xcel Gold's Bar Setting?

    Couldn't find anything on google so I went here haha. Does anyone know if Xcel Gold has to have a specific bar setting? Or is it like L4 where you can have it at any distance and any height?

DD did two meets at level 3 while on the pre-team this spring and now...
