Aid climbing results in way more placements that are ALL weighted compared to free climbing, even though they aren't shock loaded. Free climbers will, on averages over time, shock load the occasional piece..way less wear and tear on placements.Over time aiding, even just on gear, will result in way more impact on a route IMHO. Happy aiding though :) >
