Lara Trinkl does Nail the rail (8A+)

Lara Trinkl, who the last six weeks has done five 8Aโ€™s and her first 8A+, has sent Nail the Rail (8A+) in Zillertal.

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
I was originally trying Pit Bull 8A to the right of this boulder and it went ok, but I couldn't send it yet. Just as we were about to leave I thought I could give Nail the Rail a try and it was just fully my style and suited me really well. Even though the topout was scary I actually managed to send it in my first go from the start after checking the moves a few times.

How can you best explain your great progress lately?
Honestly, I have just been climbing a lot outdoors in the last few months. :)
