You could create a synthetic property that you sort on instead:

  age_height_sort = db.IntegerProperty()

You can set it in a put() override:

  def put(self):
    self.age_height_sort = self.age*1000 + self.height_in_cm
    return super(Person, self).put()

Then you can just order by that synthetic property:

  Person.all().order('age_height_sort')
