Tyler Thompson does Resisting Arrest (9a)

Tyler Thompson, who last spring did his second 9a+, has completed Resisting Arrest (9a) in Mt. Charleston. ”Great experience coming back to this one after checking out the moves last year. Ultra fun roof climbing.”

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
I just moved to Vegas and this was the first route I had in my mind to try after getting here. I had checked out the moves last year one day after doing Arrested development and knew it would suit me well. This year I did it on my 3rd day trying after falling off the shared redpoint crux cross move a few times.

What are your autumn and winter plans?
I’m working right now and am going to focus on climbing around Vegas and training for the next couple of months. I’m planning on going to Spain early next year.
