Barbara Zangerl does Prinzip Hoffnung 8b+ trad <font color="red">*Interview</font>

Barbara Zangerl, who has been on the cutting edge in bouldering, multi-pitches and sport climbing, has done Prinzip Hoffnung 8b+ trad in Bürser Platte. "It was like a roller coster the last days. Often I felt so close to climb this route. In fact I had one fall after another. Today finally the luck was on my side and i sent it. A little dream come true. Thanks to Jacopo for the support. THANKS to Beat Kammerlander for opening this incredible trad climb." In total, Babsi had 8-9 falls up to 10 metres after having been really close actually on her first try. "The next sessions after were more head challenging..." Good preparation as she on Monday goes to Indian Creek for one month trad climbing. Click here to read the short interview we had with her right after she left Oliana -where she sent three 8c's-.
