Aerotow rope drogue chute?

The release without turning is not a recommended method as such and does =
not replace a (climbing?) turn where local club rules require that the =
glider turn in a specific direction after tow. The aim , I believe, is =
to show that a highly banked and fast climbing turn is not required as =
it is this scenario that causes tug upsets when the glider pilot has not =
ensured that the tow rope has actually released prior to initiating the =
turn. As a tug pilot myself I know which method of release that I would =
prefer particularly if the rope hangs up on the glider. If the club =
rules specify a particular direction of turn this may be due to the =
position of the mirror on the tug or for other similar visibility =
reasons. This exercise shows that after the rope is released a gentle =
climb is all that is required to achieve separation. It can be combined =
with a turn in either direction.

We don't teach climbing turns on release because of setting up the habit of
slowing down after the release. If the rope breaks, you need that airspeed
to make the turn back to the field. If you get in the habit of climbing,
you will always climb and slow down.
