I hope you guys enjoyed the video, Hayato is a complete beast and is one of the most passionate climbers I know. He literally puts in blood, sweat and tears (of happiness) in order to make BPUMP a better gym and improve eveyone's climbing level. Go and check out his insta!!! I was sick for the past week and just realized that I only put in the description that this isn't BPUMP, just so you know this is Rocky Shinjyuku, but don't worry, we'll make another video at BPUMP if you guys enjoyed this one. Happy Climbing!
To be fair Rocky gyms are maybe the softest gyms in Tokyo besides Noborocks, but a 初段 anywhere is impressive regardless 💪🏼 I am curious whether 初段s are classified as V7s or 8s in V grade reference?
I haven't been to noborock but I've heard the rumors 😂 Yeah shodan is a tricky grade that's why in my road to 2D I try not to say V10 since the explanation is long and boring If you look at the grading chart in AkiPan shodan is V8 at ogipan it's V7 if I'm not mistaken At fish and bird it's V8 and even on the topo for some areas it's V8 So I just use the akipan reference since I spend 95% of my time here I do think there is always a "it depends" argument so I would rather just say it in japanese (but most people don't know what it means) 😢
@@futtsunohi gyms are a whole different story but for outdoors depending on the area 初段 is usually between v7-v8 (7a+, 7b). 段 grades are more of ranges and a bit harder to map directly to a single v grade.
Hayato climbing style seems to be very similar to janja. Just freakishly strong in shoulders and back. Dynamic but always controls the swing perfectly.
He does have amaizing flow! He also teaches the intermediate dojo at BPUMP and its usually slab so he also has a good slab game, he's the whole package. I think if you follow his insta and tell him he climbs like janja he'll be really happy! It's in the description
I like your channel. You understood quickly that it’s not just about you (you are a very good storyteller which helps) but about the people in your world that won’t put themselves in front of a camera. That won’t tell their stories. Loved this video ❤
Thank you!!! Yeah for me this channel is not about me otherwise it would be called Marcos Climbs or something. It's the videos I would of loved to see before I came to Japan. So I always think of videos that will give you guys value, either by showing my own struggles, tutorials, climbing with someone cool or anything like that
That bouldering brushing part is one of my favorite parts of bouldering. Doesn't matter how hard you are sending, everyone is so supportive of someone pushing their limits
Yay!! This type of comment always makes my day since I know you've watched more than one and are still here 🤣 I'll keep them coming so you are motivated for your trip!
Super cool to see all of you guys climb the same boulders. Maybe kinda cliche - but any chance you could do a video on what Hayato does for training? His style seems very strong and controlled compared to other pro climbers I watch.
I'll put it on the video list! It might take a while though 😅 Yeah I think it was key to have me in the video since you can compare to a normal climber
@@CrispyCrimpsClimbing lmao, would love to see what you do to warmup & also what you do as physical/mental prep ? So nice to see that you are actually working at BPUMP ! New big fan too !! also, Hayato is a wizard looks like he trained in a gravity capsule like in dbz and just enjoy having fun at normal gravity lol
I actually have a video of my warm up! ruclips.net/video/ukEFW8I-Qp8/видео.html Anything else you would like to see? Yeah you aren't the first one to say that he just came out of the chamber, I think he's like rock Lee when he takes the weights off
Dude!!!! One of the things I like the least about me is my voice and for you to say that 😲 Just turned the way I hear it around, I'll keep on improving and try to get that beautiful smooth game caster voice
Thanks!!! I would love to be able to not have to voice over but it;s still super cringe for me talking to the camera in public, especially with my friends 🤣
excellent vid thanks for sharing ! I've recently been to rocky Shinjuku and done that yellow 2d, I didn't know it was around V9-10, you surprised me because I flashed it and I felt it was around V7 🤷🏼♂
I couldnt get up the first move 🥲 hayato said it was easy but there was no meaning in giving it a real try if I couldnt do the start lol🤣 especially after climbing 4 hours. Yeah the grade where most gyms have consensus is that 3D is V10 So in thery 2D is V9 (depends on the gym though) Teach me senpai!
@@CrispyCrimpsClimbing okay, I'm like 6ft5 so I did mantle kinda with my knee 😂on that yellow 2D, and yeah I think the grades vary a lot because I've been shut down on white tapes at Bpump ogikubo and I've done a couple greens, but personally I think to not think about the grades over there and climb what looks fun and interesting ;) !
I think that's the way to go 😂 ofc if yo go there regularly it's good to look for improvement but if you're not having fun or are too hung up on grades it's just not worth it
I'm going to B-PUMP in October/November and I'm so fucking hyped but also scared shitless since my best in a local gym that tries to emulate Japanese climbs is 3 Kyu
Good luck Scott! I will pray for you 🤣 Just joking, I think as long as you are hyped and dont get frustrated you can learn a bunch from the experience and have a ton of fun. Are you only planning to climb at bpump gyms or is there other things on your list?
Lol, yeah I did a big reveal last week but RUclips stopped pushing the video 🤣 If you're interested in hearing my story I recommend watching ruclips.net/video/6IlmKUMbYgQ/видео.html
I am Japanese. I am sad that almost all people who watch this vid are non-Japanese. So maybe there are few people who can understand what they are saying in climbing. I have played climbing for about 2 years, but my best grade is about V4(3Q). So Japanese people who appear on this vid are top-climber in Japan. There are not so many people like them even in Japan. I learned it for the first time that "ガバ" is "jug" in English thanks to your vid.
it happened. Thanks Dan! I'm really glad to see people are connecting with my stuff, my videos are still horrible but I think if I can atleast pass on 10% of the emotions I'm feeling someone can enjoy it. Japan and eveyone here are amaizing!
Hey Lenniii, I'm not sure if yoshiyuki works at BPUMP or not and don't know about ogikubo employee's, but from the Tokyo(Akihabara) branch Hayato is #1!
I dont know who that is but after a quick search on youtube I found it! Indeed it is, its calles sophmore makeover from the youtube audiolibrary and i really like it

Try weight pull up with him to his limit ❤ must be pretty video
@@william6650 I think I'll break 🤣
That guy climbing a year and sending bpump v8 is absolutely mental
Ohh my bad, this gym wasnt BPUMP it;s called rocky shinjyuku and it a bit easier. Harde grades are always hard tho 🤣

100%! I love climbing for the same reason, we all go through the same experience even though it's on different stuff 🔥
always psyched waiting for your videos. another banger. cant wait to return to japan
Yay!! This type of comment always makes my day since I know you've watched more than one and are still here 🤣 I'll keep them coming so you are motivated for your trip!
Insane! The longer you have been climbing, the more you realise how hard it is to be as good as he is haha
You have the perfect tag 🤣 This man speaks the truth!!

RUclips isnt promoting a few of them 🥲, so Subscribe so you dont miss them!
Great video, subscribed! The voiceover and storytelling gave me summoning salt vibes 😆
Dude!!!! One of the things I like the least about me is my voice and for you to say that 😲
Just turned the way I hear it around, I'll keep on improving and try to get that beautiful smooth game caster voice
Nice video! You're really good at narrating!
Thanks!!! I would love to be able to not have to voice over but it;s still super cringe for me talking to the camera in public, especially with my friends 🤣
Yo Dev is goated love from philly
Dev is a BEAST!!! 💪
No way! I went to B-Pump Tokyo and you were the instructor for the english speaking dojo. So cool to see you climb!
Thanks Ian! I hope you enjoed the video and the Dojo 😁
love the stoke in this gym
The funny thing is, that isn't even the gym we work at but we we're 6 Bpump employee friends so we just took over the gym with the hype 😂
excellent vid thanks for sharing ! I've recently been to rocky Shinjuku and done that yellow 2d, I didn't know it was around V9-10, you surprised me because I flashed it and I felt it was around V7 🤷🏼♂

Hayato's so strong it's just insane to watch. It's almost like watching Janja.
Sheesh second person today to say that he climbs like Janja 🤣 Send him a DM to his insta he'll be super happy about it instagram.com/haya.nakamura/
Looking forward for the Dojo today!
Thank you!
really an amazing style he has
Yeah it's crazy!
Hayato climbs like water, amazing to watch
He does scream like Bruce Lee sometimes 🤣 I'll show him your comment, I'm sure he'll love it!

This is the #1 up and coming climbing channel. Subscribe now so you can say you were here when.....

Bro definitely trains at 10x Earth's gravity.
Grades are for mere mortals.
Lol 😂 True straight out of mighty guy's training camp
His 1 arm lock off strength is crazy
It's nuts, he can just stay there for eternity
what gyms should i go to in tokyo
There's a ton of gyms to go, my personal top 3 are BPUMP Tokyo, Fish & Bird and BPUMP Ogikubo but there's a ton I haven't been to yet
@@CrispyCrimpsClimbing thanks man i will check them out when i go visit in october
that was fire
Thanks!!! What was your favourite boulder?
bro got that gravity off climbing style
You just described it better than I ever could 😂
great video :)
Thanks! Just curious, what did you like about it? I;m still finding me style since I havent even done 10 vids
@@CrispyCrimpsClimbing strong climbing and it's like you are telling a story about whats happening in the video
Thanks! There's gonna be a few different styles on the channel for sure interviews, how to's. I hope I can manage to make them all enjoyable
Wouldnt Yoshiyuki be the strongest employee? Bpumps instagram sort of gives of the impression that he sets there a lot (making him an employee?).
ahhhhh i see - bpump ogikubo ≠ bpump tokyo xD
Hey Lenniii, I'm not sure if yoshiyuki works at BPUMP or not and don't know about ogikubo employee's, but from the Tokyo(Akihabara) branch Hayato is #1!
