Jacob Sanchez

Didn't honestly pay much attention to Jacob before but his 4CCs' free skate has made me a fan. I hope he's working on a couple of quads because once he has them down consistent he's going to be hard to beat by most of his competitors. He has a grace and style about him and he isn't JUST a jumper. I wish him well. This skate ought to get him a couple of Gran Prix assignments next year! Watch out world!
 
Jacob took a while getting his 3A but then he got it! He's been improving steadily and he's very motivated. He's got a lot of promise. He is consistent and has a lot of personality and skating skills. This was a very good senior debut year! I hope that he can solidify at least one quad this year before he turns 19. Once he gets the muscle memory, he can build on that. His envelope for next season should be good and he can consider some specialized training to help him become more consistent with them.
 
Although I regret how it came about, I'm very excited for Jacob to be skating at Worlds to cap off his senior debut season! I hope he can make some memories and gain some valuable experience. I know Jacob is good friends with Ilia Malinin, and I hope it will cheer them both to be going to a big competition together.
 
While adding Jacob's gofundmes to the OP, I was inspired to add some extra things to it, including these articles:
