Dylan Inserra (born May 22, 1987)[1] is a retired acrobatic gymnast who competed as a senior elite men’s pair with his partner, top Axl Osborne. Inserra, the older of the two, was the base of the pair.

Inserra and Osborne trained at World Olympic Gymnastics Academy[1] in Plano, Texas, which was also the training center for Nastia Liukin, winner of the women’s gymnastics all-around title at the 2008 Beijing Olympics,[2] and Carly Patterson, winner of the women's gymnastics all-around title at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece.[3]

In November 2008, Inserra and Osborne qualified for elite status during a competition at the Karolyi Ranch in New Waverly, Texas.[4]

The next year, Inserra and Osborne captured the senior national men’s pair title at the 2009 Acrobatic Gymnastics Championships in Dallas, Texas,[5] and they were named to the U.S. senior national team.[6]

In the summer of 2010 in Kissimmee, Florida, Osborne and Inserra repeated as national men’s pair champions, placing first in both dynamic and balance events.[7] They were once again named to the U.S. senior national team.[6]

Internationally, the pair competed at the 2010 World Championships in Wroclaw, Poland, where they placed seventh,[8] and at the 2010 Volkov Cup in Novgorod, Russia, where they placed fourth.[9]

The pair disbanded after the 2010 season.
