Just how does one perform a *Go-Around* in a glider?

Depends on the surroundings of the airfied and the
wind conditions. At Sutton Bank or the Long Mynd, you
put your airbrakes away on approach and pop over the
end of the airfield into the ridge lift. You had to
ask.

It's interesting that the NTSB seem to consider that
this was an accident during an off field landing rather
than a classic stall/spin during a low slow turn.
