Level 10 Composition Credit added to SV: Difficulty to earn a +0.10 bonus requires which combination?

• A. 1 E and 1 E
• B. 2 E salto or 1 D and 1 C or higher
• C. 2 different D salto or 1 E and 1 C or higher
• D. 1 C and 1 D

Answer: (C)

Level 10 routines earn a +0.10 start-value bonus only if the composition includes certain high-difficulty elements in specific ways. The best way to achieve this bonus is to include two different D-level saltos, or to pair one E-level element with another element that is at least C level. This creates either clear variety with two distinct D elements or a strong high-difficulty pairing (E with a C or better), which the rule awards the extra credit for. Other pairings don’t meet the rule because they don’t satisfy either path: simply having two E elements, or a D combined with a C without the required distinct D elements, isn’t enough to earn the bonus.
