i have tried trampoline and floor but it’s not really my thing. I’ve been doing recreational gymnastics for years but I know im most skilled on floor then anything elseJust off the top of my head:
Would trampoline and tumbling (T&T) be something you might be interested in? Many gyms, even cheer gyms, have competitive T&T teams. Acro and tumbling ("acro" or A&T) is now a collegiate sport, and there may be some youth teams out there. It seems to be a great option for gymnasts who love floor!
I’ve never competed before and i have done gymnastics in three years due to covid-19 but im always tumbling around in my backyard. It’s just very odd for me because i don’t know where i would be considering I'm best at floorIt's completely normal to have a better event! Now if the other events are holding you back from competing I would talk to your coach to see if you can change your routine to something easier for you to learn (even if you don't have a 10.0 start) that way, you can at least get out and compete. Good luck!
I've been doing gymnastics since I was 4 but I've only been doing rec. I now would like to start to compete but I have rarely any skills on bars, beam and vaultSo I am a little confused. You like tumbling and the dance aspects of floor, but you've only done rec classes?
That is very common in rec gymnasts. My sister did half a year or so of rec, she had definitely zero vault skills, and just a pullover and backhipcircle on bars, but was doing ro double bhs on floor. She did a successful year of xcel bronze after her coach drilling her in form over the summer, jumped to level 4 was okay, had one okay meet of level 5 during Covid then meets were cancelled, and this year had a very successful level 7 season. In fact, vault and bars is her best event now.I've been doing gymnastics since I was 4 but I've only been doing rec.

this was extremely helpful I really appreciate itThat is very common in rec gymnasts.

For you I 100% recommend xcel if it is an option, because you may be able to compete harder skills on floor and easier skills on the others. If you have your heart set on DP I see a LOT of conditioning and definitely hard work in your future, but its possible.
