Every jump or spin that a skater performs has a point value. All of the skaters that compete against each other must complete the same amount of jumps and the same amount of spins--however the spins and jumps can vary from skater to skater. If a spin or jump is very good, or better than average, judges can award extra points. On the other hand if a jump or spin is below average, points will be removed. Each spin can be a level 1, 2, 3, or 4 depending on the amount of positions a skater achieves in the spin. Every level of spin receives more points than the previous level. For every fall, 1.00 is deducted from the final points.

I know this is complicated but I hope it helps!
