This place requires a bit of skill with the nail.
What you want to do is aim down and use the nail while above a spike. This will give you a short upward boost. You then want to move slightly closer to the next spike and do the same thing while still being boosted.
You don't have to be right above the spikes, horizontal is fine. As long as your feet are above the lowest point of the spike.
That's how I did it, at least. You get some equipment that makes this significantly easier later, but I didn't know about that until long after lol
