You mean that the other people in your group do not lead climb? You put the rope on the top and everyone else top ropes the routes?

no, it is so: our rocks are sandstone/gritstone. so it is typicall that one is leadclimber and if he is on the top he build a standpoint and the others are follow. the leadclimber save them from the top. so you didn`t damage the rock and the rope too much. but i found someone. thanks
