Climbing Gym Project: Spray Wall Heaven in Kanagawa

📍 Near Kamoi Station, Kanagawa — ~15min walk This is the place for hardcore climbers. Almost entirely spray wall. No fancy commercial setting — just taped holds or a printed problem book. You gotta memorize lines before getting on. 💪 Wall angles are steep. Tons of problems: limited-time sets, theme-based, skill drills (pinch/crimp-specific), and even a traditional line-set wall if you need structure. There’s a huge roof, and yes, they installed lights under it. Second floor = solid training area, everything you need. ⚠️ Caveats: Not beginner-friendly No air con — it gets freezing in winter Problems marked by range (e.g., “yellow = V2–V4”), not exact grades Foot freedom is common (handholds only, step wherever) ❤️ Vibes: Chill staff. One time a climber who bakes brought extra bread — end of the night, they made sure everyone left with a loaf. Unexpectedly wholesome. #Sports #tokyoclimbing #kanagawaclimbing #spraywalltraining #climblife #chalktalk #boulderinginjapan

Hidden gem in Tokyo climbing? Be Born 🧗‍♀️🔥

Tons of famous gyms in Tokyo—B-Pump, D.Bouldering, Noborock... But my fav this trip? Be Born. Absolute banger. Hardcore climbers: you'll love the holds & bold setting. Newbies: don’t worry—V2s here are FUN and surprisingly doable 👶 🚉 30 min from Oshiage Station (near Skytree). Super easy. Also—random but important—the kebab place across the station SLAPS. 🧩 Routes have that classic Japanese "puzzle" vibe. Tried a bunch of 4Q lines—some are spicier than expected, but super satisfying. A few V2s (2Q) felt smoother. Great mix of weird holds + smart moves = chef’s kiss. Honestly, don’t get too obsessed with the grade. If it’s fun, it’s worth it. Period. So next time you’re in Tokyo? Take a lil detour & get on the wall at Be Born. Totally worth it 🙌 Big shoutout to the owner @Akira Ishiyama—routes are 🔥🔥🔥 #Sports #tokyoclimbing #boulderinginjapan #bebornbouldering #climblife #gymrecommendation #chalktalk
