Triple 8C by Ondra, Amma and Jongwon

Sachi Amma reports on Instagram, adding a great picture from Eddie Gianelloni, that he, Chon Jongwon and Adam Ondra have done Asagimadara 8C at Mt Mizugaki. It was put up by Tokio Muroi, who did not use a crash pad, as a 6-Dan which is equivalent to 8C+ but it has later been downgraded. It should be noted that Ondra has not commented on the grade yet. Chon Jongwon won the Boulder World Cup last year and this was his first 8C. Sachi Amma has won the Lead World Cup twice and has been one of the best rock climbers in recent years. You all know Ondra's greatness so we are talking about the real dream team. Sachi Amma finished his post with, "Let's see what will happen the next days."

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders. Outdoor bouldering isโ€ฆ
