With the weak link at this level, you can not put more than 2g on the airframe.


Well Actually it is 3g since you have add the weight of the glider to it. Still a 2-33 will easily handle 3g's. If the tow speed is flown below V/a then you have two safeties in place to prevent overloading the air frame.
