"Thinking on the kick as the main, pick the spike" Goro Moruma (Representative of Rugby Japan)

Rugby World Cup (World Cup) England tournament held in the fall of 2015. The Japan National Rugby Union, led by Eddie Jones Head Coach (HC), has created a major movement at home and abroad with three wins in one World Cup tournament for the first time in the history of Japanese rugby. The feat (34-32), which defeated South Africa in the first match of the first league, marveled the world and became the priming water for the "rugby boom since the 1980s" in Japan after the World Cup.

The great leap forward of Eddie Japan gave birth to a rugby star. FB Goromaru Ayumu = Yamaha Motor = who scored a total of 58 points, ranking second in the first league. Fever after the World Cup is well known. In particular, the so-called "Goromaru pose" that is shown at the time of a place kick attracted a lot of attention.

　
However, at that foot, there may have been no media focusing on the three lines that shine on the right foot that is swung out. It is the existence of the gear that supported Goromaru's accurate and unrivaled place kick, that is, the adidas rugby spike "Crazy Quick SG".

This time KING GEAR (King Gear) dedicates a single interview at the base of Yamaha Motor · Iwata-shi, Shizuoka prefecture. I caught the unknown man's "spike view" that was the treasure of Japanese rugby world.

＊＊＊

- How many feet are you preparing?

Goromaru Ayumi (hereinafter referred to as "Goro Maru): When entering the season, you only need a replacement pair and a fixed pair.

- What kind of care does spike have?

Goro Maru：I like to pretty much polish before the game. I will get dirty after the game is over. I will refine it cleanly the other day before the game.
- In the World Cup England tournament I was wearing crazy quick SG, but what is the feel?

Goro Maru：The sole is solid. It is a bit heavier than RS 7, but it is a very good balance for kickers. The one with the weight will fly, but is it better than the RS 7 for the kicker?

Adidas' "Adidas Zero RS7" series is a speed model with excellent lightness and fitting. Even at the national level, it was especially supported by Bucks players, and Goromaru himself wore Adidas Zero RS7 (silver metallic) until the summer of 2015.

- Until the summer of 2015, you wore Adidas' RS7.

Goro Maru：I agree. I was wearing it until the World Championship match.

- Why did you change the spike?

Goro Maru：Because the World Cup was supposed to go with this (crazy quick). You were wearing crazy quick when you were out of the game.

- The choice of crazy quick was not a mistake.

Goro Maru：I agree. I flew away as I expected. It seems that running was going well.

- Which spike did you choose as a spike as a place kicker, spike as a full back?

Goro Maru：Well, there are various players among the representatives, for example, a player who sells the speed of the foot tends to choose the lightest spike as possible. So, I am not a speed system, so when thinking into the kick main, I think that crazy quick is the best match.

　

Goro Maru decided the goal kick (GK) success rate at the main competition to be 85% before the World Cup, the GK success rate in 2014 is about 81%. A series of routines was born at the end of the fight with this "85%" number.

　
Such Goromaru wanted the performance to support the kick even for spikes. Instead of the RS7, which boasts high lightness and grip, I chose the "kick-main" crazy quick. It's heavier than RS7, but it's heavier, so the kick distance is longer.

Kick of Goro Maru that supported Eddie Japan's achievement. There was a spike to support him with shadows. The name of the spike is "Adidas · Crazy Quick SG".
