question about EZRocket

I saw a thing on Travel Channel tonight that was showing off the EZRocket.
This raised a couple of questions.

It looked like he has that thing going straight up. How can this be, with
that canard wing. Other than just brute force I thought for sure it would
stall?

Second, what is the landing speed of one of them things? It seemed like he
was hauling @$$ when he landed.

Thanks,
Fred
