Does anyone have experience in towing with an RR Acro Base Harness?

nice ;) in my opinion 265 ft suppliied bu supair is too huge and can be excessive in strong winds. I use 220ft...even downwind landing in light breeze was ok. I'm 95 kg.... why twists happened? 5 deploys on mine...from rotation, twist, simple tests...base canopy never got twisted...
I'm looking at buying one now but I read on the manual it says not suitable for towing. Seems it's been no problem for you! Why do you think they say no towing? I'm curious.

I towed....all good. just check 3 ring system with towing bridles.
See the video: tow + base use.http://justacro.com/video/base-freefall/ava-acro-base-system-2016
the towing bridle could get caught up when pulling the rescue. If that happenes the rescue will not work. That is the reason.
