You mention co-coordinating the ailerons with the wind condition, and the
use of power, but you don't mention the use of elevator.

If you were originally (okay) in the quartering tailwind, might you not have
had the elevator full down (forward) as recommended, which would have caused
the tail-lift once in a headwind situation??? (and power would have just
added even more lift to the tail).

Or do you recall pulling the elevator back (up) as you crossed from
tailwind-to-headwind?
