I use SST's for foil crossover use & couldn't be happier.
They do tend to fly slightly downwind, so the upwind performance suffers a bit on a TT.
I also noticed the gust performance of the apollo, but have seen them bowtie on several occassions w/ a TT rider.
There is no such thing as a perfect tool for every task.
