It’s also the only chance to vertically climb Beta’s face wall with an ice ax and a rope. Please feel free to enjoy!

The route was set by Mr. Hiroshi Furukawa, who is known as “Kazuo-san” in the dry touring community. They always put their ingenuity and prepare a fun route.

[Indoor] Climb back (using ATC as an ascender) Scheduled for November

2023年12月07日

Overview

“Climb back” is an essential technique to deal with “what if” while rappelling.
No matter how careful you are, troubles such as descending to the wrong place, the length of the rope not being long enough while suspending in the air, etc., may occur no matter how careful you are. It will happen.
In such cases, you will need techniques to climb back up.
If you can hold the rock with your hands or feet, you can climb back up with some ease by climbing.
However, if you cannot reach the rock while suspended in the air, you will need solid climbing techniques.

This course will teach you how to climb back up in such a situation.

[December date]
12/17 (Sun) 18:00~

【Venue】
Beta 3F Shinjuku Face

[Content]
I will tell you how to climb back up using ATC as an ascender.
