West, 16, is a gymnastics phenom. He’s the youngest athlete on the USA Gymnastics men’s trampoline national teams.
Thank you for generously supporting West in this year’s competition. Your support helps empower the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Why Not You Foundation in their respective missions to save lives and empower today's youth to become tomorrow's leaders.
I love the thrill of flying and accomplishing new skills. I love the community I compete in and the opportunity to compete in the international stage.
My parents inspire me. They are hard workers and never settle. I’m also inspired by trampoline Olympian Alexi Shostak for his commitment, longevity and mentorship.
While he has qualified for World Championships in his first eligible year and has won a world youth title and junior worlds bronze, it’s his commitment, effort and desire to be the best that makes us the most proud.
