Introduction to Crack Climbing
Every 3rd Wednesday at 19:30
Learn Cracks and Expand Your Possibilities!
"There's a multi-pitch climb I want to do, but I can't try it because there's a crack section."
"There's an area that's warm even in winter, but I've never done cracks before, so I can't go..."
Have you ever felt like you couldn't do what you wanted to do because you can't climb cracks?
Yes, the world opens up when you can climb cracks.
Even if you can't climb perfectly, it's okay! Just being able to place protection in cracks will open up a whole new world for you.
Also, people think crack climbers... especially those who do wide cracks, are weirdos! This is a misunderstanding.
Please consult with BETA Climbing Gym.
If you don't have enough reach and are struggling on face climbing, cracks don't depend on reach.
There's sure to be a crack that suits your body type waiting for you.
Do you think it's too early for cracks?
First, try jamming.
New fun awaits you.
After learning indoors, try climbing outdoors!
We also hold outdoor crack lessons every month. We can also organize crack sessions on weekdays if requested by climbing clubs.
