Daniel Woods - the Altruist 8B

Join Daniel Woods in Colorado for a focused, high-intensity look at “The Altruist” (8B/V13), a boulder that demands absolute precision and commitment. Filmed by Cameron Maier, this short episode drops you into the process behind a first ascent mindset: reading micro-features, dialing body position, and building the confidence to try hard when the margin for error is razor thin. What makes this worth watching is the clarity of the effort—no fluff, just the tension between problem-solving and pure power as attempts stack up and the sequence comes into focus. If you love modern bouldering at its limit, you’ll appreciate the gritty Colorado stone, the careful pacing of tries, and the reminder that big grades are earned through patience, creativity, and relentless execution.
