【Dry Tooling】 #53 Introductory Held on 11/1 (Wednesday)

2023年10月21日

Intro to dry touring in November will be held on 11/1 (Wednesday)!
Dry touring is climbing using ice axes and crampons to climb rock walls and artificial walls.
In Europe and the United States, it is enjoyed by many people as a genre of climbing.

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.
In addition, participants in this course may rent the Axe at no charge at any time in the future!

Even if you are new to Beta drywall, please take this course.
If you want to use Beta drywall, please take this course first
