Another possibility would be incorrect diamond wire tension. In order to use the same SC17 aluminum section, the SC22 is rigged with two diamonds and one crostree - or at least this is how the one here is rigged. The mast may twist if any of the eight turnbuckles -one for each wire section- is too loose or too tight.
