Raynie Ketcher has consistently showcased the ability to combine difficulty and cleanliness on beam. Last season, Ketcher competed a stacked routine featuring unique skills, including a back handspring mount. Aside from her unique skills, what immediately stands out is her artistry and confidence.
This summer, Ketcher has been upping her difficulty even further. She has been training a dynamic round off 2½ twist dismount. This addition would not only elevate her routine but would add to the already impressive difficulty she brings to the event, giving her another way to separate herself on beam.
