Unless you are moving onto A3/A4 stuff, you have enough gear. You might try getting the Russian Aiders that PTPP used for his recent ascents of Leaning Tower, Excalibur and Shortest Straw. I saw him super-top-step on the Excalibur, with his piece lower than his knee. Now THAT'S top-stepping. He led the amazing 26th pitch, corner, roof, corner, roof, always super-top-stepping. He made it look easy. It was hard for me to follow the pitch. When I had to clip the pieces to back-clean, I was way stretched to the limit.
Russian aiders rule.
