BD Athlete Seb Bouin: MOVE

Seb Bouin travels far from home to take on a daunting challenge: Move (9b/9b+) in Flatanger, Norway. In this short Black Diamond film, we follow Seb as he weighs what distance really costs—beyond the difficulty of the climbing itself—while he commits to what he calls the “logical next step” in his progression. MOVE is worth watching because it’s as much about the head game as it is about hard rock. You’ll get a tight, motivating glimpse into what it takes to stay focused when conditions, travel, and doubt chip away at momentum, and how big routes can demand personal growth along with power and precision. If you love modern sport climbing, big ambitions, and the quiet grind behind breakthrough days, this one delivers.
