    Anon Xcel Platinum to diamond??

    Would you let your 10 year old move from platinum to diamond? She will be turn 11 at the start of the competition season. She has floor, beam, and vault skills for diamond. I’m not sure what is needed for diamond bars but she might have to work a little bit depending on what is needed. Would...

    Gymnasts Xcel platinum to level 7?

    This year is my second year of xcel platinum and I’m hoping to move to level 7 next year, considering I have all of the skills besides for a cast handstand. I was wondering what the mobility would be. The highest compulsory I competed was level 4 before I moved to xcel. How would I need to...

    Gymnasts Xcel platinum vault

    What vaults are available for xcel platinum? Some girls can technically flip tsuks and possibly yurchenkos but that’s apparently not aloud right? We are working on front handspring and full twist.

    Women What are the Xcel Platinum Bars Requirements???

    So last season I competed Gold for a second time, and I'm pretty hopeful that I will be able to go to Platinum this year. I'm pretty close to having all my skills, most of my newer skills that I got for Platinum do need to be cleaned up a little, but I can do them pretty decently, I think. I...

    Anon Xcel gold to Xcel platinum struggle?

    Do you feel that there is a big jump in scoring requirements from xcel gold to xcel platinum? If one struggled with the jump from silver to gold but then scored well when repeating gold, would you expect a similar struggle when moving from gold to platinum?

    Women L8 to Xcel Platinum I think, maybe???

    Not ready to spill details but we may need a gym change. Suffice to say there have been changes that don’t work for us at this time. My kid is a L8/9. She will be a senior next year. Had her coaching situation been different this year, she likely could have competed 9. What’s done is done. She...
