Beta Climbing Gym Seminar: Introduction to Cracks

Learn cracks and expand your possibilities!
There’s a multi-level climb I want to do, but I can’t try it because there’s a crack part.

There’s an area that’s warm even in winter, but I’ve never done cracks before, so I can’t go. .

Have you ever been unable to do something you want to do because you can’t climb cracks?

Yes, if you can climb cracks, the world will open up.

I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and say that it’s okay if you can’t climb! Even if you can get protection from cracks, the world will open up.

Also, people who do cracks…especially wide ones, are weirdos! This is a misunderstanding.

Please consult Beta Climbing Gym.
If you don’t have enough reach and are struggling to make progress on the face, cracks don’t matter in terms of reach.

There’s sure to be a crack of the right size waiting for you.

Do you think it’s too early for cracks?
First, try getting caught in them.
New fun awaits you.

After learning indoors, try climbing outdoors!
We also hold outdoor crack lessons every month.
We also hold crack lessons on weekdays if requested by the climbing club.
