Frequently Asked Questions

POP IN covers a solid range from 90° (vertical) up to 135° overhang. This variety means you can work technical slab skills one session, then hit steep power problems the next. The monthly themed problems are set across these different angles, so you're getting well-rounded training.
Day passes run ¥1,650, plus a ¥1,100 registration fee if it's your first visit. That's pretty reasonable for the Tokyo area, especially considering the variety of wall angles and regularly updated problems you're getting access to.
Problems are updated monthly with themed sets, which is great for skill progression. You get enough time to project harder problems and see improvement, but routes don't go stale. The themes help target specific techniques too, rather than just random setting.
English support is limited here. Basic climbing terminology and gestures will get you through check-in and rentals, but don't expect full English conversations. The climbing itself is universal though, and staff are generally helpful even with the language barrier.
You've got the essentials covered: changing rooms, lockers for your valuables, and foot wash stations. There's also a gear shop on-site if you need to pick up shoes, chalk, or other gear. Pretty standard setup that covers what you need for a focused session.
Yes, they accommodate children aged 4 and above with a dedicated kids area. Good if you're looking to introduce younger climbers to bouldering, though the main walls with those steeper angles are really geared toward more developed climbers.
It's a straightforward 5-minute walk from Shimomaruko Station. Close enough that it's convenient for after-work sessions without eating into your climbing time with a long commute.
While specific quiet hours aren't listed, typical Tokyo gym patterns suggest weekday afternoons are your best bet for space. Early mornings and late evenings during the week also tend to be less crowded than the post-work rush around 7-9pm.
