MyKayla Skinner
MyKayla Skinner was just 15th all-around at the 2012 US senior nationals, but could possibly sneak onto the 2013 world team because of her incredible skills on vault and floor. Skinner recently competed a double-twisting double layout on floor -- thought to be the first ever competed by a female gymnast. She can also do both an Amanar and a Cheng vault, meaning she could easily pick up a vault medal for the US as well.
