SupAir Acro Base towing?

I'm considering a SupAir acro base harness. I read the manual and it says it's not for winching/towing, which would be one of my primary uses for it (SIV courses).

Is that something I should pay attention to or is a base system fine for towing?

Practicing Full stall

I don't see much written about this, but how important is it to do a full stall into the Wind? It seems obvious for the purposes of better inflation to perform a full stall or stabilized full stall into the wind.... but is it absolutely necessary, or is it just a preferred method or do you think I could have similar results and even a successful tail slide even though I am pointing downwind?
