Does using a Gri Gri make you feel safer? Even though it's auto locking, user error is still possible. Just anchor into the ground before belaying your partner, even without being anchored in, getting pulled up isn't that big of an issue. Providing a dynamic belay is better on the system.

Using a grigri is the only way I have climbed. Providing the belayer doesn't yank on the release, what other "user error" do we have to worry about?

Again, anchors are not available in our gym.
