[Outdoor] Dry tooling experience @Sendai 11/2-3

beta climbing gym | outdoor drytooling


We will be holding a dry tooling outdoor rock trial event in November.
If you are interested in outdoor dry tooling, please join us.
Axes extend your reach! You might think you can hold on anywhere with a pick, but it’s not that easy.
The same goes for flute boots and crampons. You might think you can place your foot anywhere with the front point, but it’s easier to climb if you smear with climbing shoes.
It’s a really interesting activity. I hope you’ll try it! I think it will broaden the scope of your climbing.
