DANIEL WOODS
CLIMBER

When it comes to bouldering and sport climbing, Daniel Woods is at the top of his game. Woods began competition climbing at 8 years old and quickly rose through the ranks, winning a gold medal at the IFSC World Cup, and dominating the American Bouldering Series over the last decade. But he’s far from a competition-only athlete: Climbing outside, he routinely sends the hardest bouldering problems sport routes around the world, with well over twenty problems sent over V15, three first ascents of V16 problems, and four 5.15a routes all on his list of achievements. When it comes to the limits of what is possible, you can always count on Daniel to be right there at the edge pushing to go further.
