Skill ratings are located in the code of points, which has to be purchased from USA Gymnastics. [I'm assuming this is USAG]. As for skill requirements, there isn't a set list of skills, just special requirements to start from a 10.0, bonus from difficulty and connection, and then composition deductions for skills not being up to a certain level. Level 9 can be very complex.
