Corey,
What condition are the legs in? New? Been through combat?
Make sure the locks and pivot points are good and tight, with minimal side-to-side play.
I haven't worked with Cartoni's legs (don't know how naturally prone to wind-up they are), but I've found their smaller heads to be a bit squirrely. If you have access to a different tripod/head kit of the same bowl size, you could trade the heads and see if there is any change with the different combination, then trade/upgrade to taste.
To help stability, you can anchor the top/center of the tripod to a sandbag with a ratchet strap. Or bag each leg. Or get your hands on a 100mm Ronford tripod....
