Sachi Amma focusing on rock and doing 9a+

Sachi Amma won the Lead World Cup in both 2012 and 2013. Last year he focused more on rock but still did five WCs and his worst result was #3. In 2015, he has been travelling and going after the most famous crags. Last week he was in Frankenjura and now he is in Céüse. "I can say I am having little bit of break for competition now. I kept competing for nine years and now I am very motivated for outside climbing. I want to focus for it without thinking about competition. My goal of this year is to send ten 9a+ or harder. Now I have sent five. Cëüse is very hot right now but I will try Jungle Boogie and L'etrange Ivress des... we will see. I really love this place. The rock, view and hiking. Everything makes this amazing moment;) I will stay 16 days more! I will participate in Red Bull High 5 which is held in Silverpark in Austria. I go back to Japan on August 17th. Come back to Europe for Adidas Rockstars and I go to Magic Wood with Japanese friends for 2 weeks."
