March 29, 2023 2F Full Renewal The END


Late report. The full renovation of the 2nd floor was completed at the end of March.
Beta’s Shun, Kite, and 4 guests set it up. I think it has become a unique and worthwhile wall!
Please enjoy!

I would like to introduce four guest setters, Mr. Naoki Shimatani, Mr. Yuya Kitae, Mr. Ryoga Tsukada, and Mr. Tomohiro Motegi.
Introduction: Kite


Naoki Shimatani
Needless to say, the person in charge of Rokudo’s holding power has come! As I had envisioned, they created a number of challenges that emphasized maintenance, but they also showed us their strength to climb the two most difficult stages of 120° with one try.


Ryoga Tsukada
Bouldering Japan Tour 2021 1st place
Bouldering Japan Cup 2022 Semifinalist

We invited this person who is in great demand as a setter in competitions, advanced to the BJC semi-finals as a player, and is strong in both making and climbing!
Many of you may have known about his bad legs in the previous 1F set. There are a lot of challenges that can’t be climbed if you can’t step on this time. If you climb, your legs will surely improve!


Tomohiro Motegi
I invited this person who had an impression of competitive subjects such as Marboo, TSS, and Young Gun. I get the impression that there are many challenges in Beta where his physicality, which is his characteristic, becomes important. There are many assignments for comfortable moves, so if you want to climb hard, you may want to try it!


Yuya Kitae
Former Deputy Manager of UNDERGROUND
I think there are many people who have a strong image of what they look like in UNDERGROUND and their activities as players. On the day of the set, the sight of him climbing up the high grade crisply while saying, “I just cracked my finger the other day lol” was just a word.
I made a challenge that is dynamic and makes me think about moves!



February 2023 Announcement of lottery results for monthly challenge climbing shoes gift

ベータクライミングジム|マンスリーチャレンジ・プレゼント抽選結果

There were 396 people listed on the monthly challenge check sheet in February 2023.
Oh my God, 4 more people and 400 people… I should have been able to do it somehow. I should have made an announcement on the last day…I was so busy with everything that I didn’t have time to look at the list.

Thank you so much for taking on the challenge!

We asked Mr. Yuya Kitae and Mr. Tomohiro Motegi, the guest setters of the 1F renewal, for the shoe lottery!
Well, this time it was a miraculous result that the first prize was number 101 and the second prize was number 100!
I posted a video of the lottery on Instagram, so please check it out!

Well, I will announce the lottery results.


1st prize Your favorite climbing shoes
Ogino san

2nd Prize Original T-shirt
Kosuge san

3rd class all-day ticket
Tachibana san


congratulations!

Mr. Tachibana, who won the 3rd prize, seems to have won the 1st prize and 2nd prize before. !
Winning 1st prize 3 times, winning as a couple, and so on, there are many interesting things that happen~, what’s next? “I’m looking forward to it!”

Well, the winning probability has nothing to do with the number of climbs. Those who write their names have an equal chance.
The number 1 assignment is about the 5th grade, so it’s gamba! !

In the beta, I hope that you will enjoy the new challenges in the monthly challenges, and you will be able to see your growth in the tape challenges that have a long set cycle. Monthly assignments have a slightly different taste than tape assignments, such as dynamic assignments, so please give it a try!

You can choose your favorite shoes from Scarpa, Sportiva, Unparallel, Mad Rock, and Black Diamond.

If you are a winner, please let us know when you come to the store or by phone, email, etc. by the end of April. After that, it will be disabled.

【Dry Tooling】 #46 Introductory Held on 4/12 (Wednesday)

Beta Climbing Gym Seminar/Introduction to Dry Tooling

April’s introduction to dry touring will be held on April 12th (Wednesday), welcoming “Ginreikai Mepanna”!

Thanks to the “Spring Dry Touring Festival” held on March 26th, it was a great success.
The “beginner class” that Ms. Mepanna was in charge of was also a great success. I narrowed down the content at the event, but here you can receive a lecture in the full version.
For those of you who participated, why not take the course again?

Dry tooling is climbing using ice axes and crampons to climb rock walls and artificial walls.

There are many climbers who enjoy dry tooling as a competition and incorporate it as training for ice climbing and alpine climbing.
This course is for those who want to start dry tooling, those who have experienced dry tooling several times but want to learn from the basics properly.

I use an ax to climb, but don’t worry if you don’t have your own ax, I will rent it for you.

Even if you are new to Beta drywall, please take this course.
If you want to use Beta drywall, please take this course first
For details and to apply, please visit the official website

The number of times you can participate in the introductory class will be up to 3 times. After graduating from the introductory class, you can practice on your own, or if you want to practice with everyone, please use the “Dry Tooling Practice Meeting”.。
