In the successful year 2002 she became Tyrolean champion, national champion, vice youth world champion and overall youth European cup winner. In the 2004 season she dominated the World Cup and finally won the overall standings. In 2005 and 2006, the Pitztal woman again secured the overall World Cup.

In 2013 Angela Eiter ended her competitive career. Since then she has been very successful in rock climbing. She is the first woman to complete three routes on UIAA level 11. Angela Eiter describes her height of 1.54 meters as her greatest handicap in rock climbing. Certain routes would therefore be denied her, especially if they were set up by men.
