Mr. Sosuke

congratulations!
Well, I finally got it! Mr. Seino! 　
These are customers who have been coming since we first opened. It was really good ^^
If you have won, please inform the staff.

Well, the probability of winning has nothing to do with the number of completed entries. Anyone who writes their name has an equal chance.
The first assignment is about 5th grade, so I’m going to do my best! !

In the beta, we hope that you will enjoy new challenges through the monthly challenges and check your progress through the tape challenges, which have long set cycles. The monthly assignments have a slightly different taste than the tape assignments, such as dynamic assignments, so be sure to give them a try!

You can choose your favorite shoes from among Scarpa, Sportiva, Unparallel, Madrock, and Black Diamond.

October monthly has started!
Please give it a try! !

Please join BloC, which has become easier to participate in by age group this year.

Yuki Matsushima
It’s been a long time since I’ve been a female setter!

There are also challenges that require strength and distance!

Currently, she seems to be enjoying climbing while raising her children, and we had a great time talking about raising children with Ms. Ishiyama.

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

2023年10月04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.

[October date]
10/6 (Fri) 16:00~
