Is there a nose hook modification for a standard cirrus
Gliders with CG hooks are kinda like airplanes with tailwheels; if you know what you are doing they are no problem and can be more fun (i.e. need more skill) than nose hooks or nose wheels.
BUT They both can setup situations that can rapidly escalate out of control. Crosswinds, unbalanced wings dropping, poor aileron control at low speed, tall grass - you have to be aware of the system dynamics and prepared to cope. Now if we had CG hooks on towplanes..! Kirk 66
