Perhaps your second should invest in a pair of ascenders, or you should climb routes that are better suited to her/his abilities.

"Tough crowd. This topic would be met with warm fuzzy cocktails, two moderators, 3 mentors-for-hire and a goddamn group grope pver at rc.noob. Plus it would foster 9 sub-threads and the banning of at least one regular "I just can't take it anymore" noob school graduate in a deluge of foul language and golden showers.
Here you just get the door slammed in your face.
I love you guys."
Best post of the year, IMO.

Close runner up!

I don't worry about scratched gear.
When I buy gear, I will scratch it, so that it blends in on the rack.
I think one of you is free climbing, & the other is aid climbing.
Pick one or the other, & do them together.

GSG 9 has some. You could ask them.
. . .Or, you could just use the same density metal and clip into the higher biner.

For this type of trolling, I recommend a large fishhook. Bend the barb down to avoid scratches.
Are you related to Ashley Blue?

Or just lead on the static line so you don't have to haul another rope. Fix it at the anchors and then your second could just jug up the line.
