General input and experience?
The Slingshot system uses a Chinook tuttle box or adjustable track mount system. Most race foils, use a deep tuttle fixed mast. I know that the adjustable track mount is great, but I don't think for racing it would provide the support. For example, 100cm wide carbon board, deep tuttle box (not foil approved), 9.5 - 11 m2 sail, light wind. Do you think the Chinook tuttle box adapter on this carbon deep tuttle box would get destroyed with a lot of leverage; 245 lbs person with 10.0 m2 sail?
Ideal would be to have the foil box reinforced, but what bothers me is that the Slingshot Chinook tuttle adapter doesn't go as deep as other foil systems. Of course the solution is to get a true carbon racing foil in the future. Slingshot is really neat with choice of wings, fuse and mast.
