And when the canopy fills with trees going by at 70 mph, the urge to pull back will be really strong.
You may push forward to recover at altitude, but it's really really hard to do with the ground coming up fast.
This reminds me of personal aerobatic experience and being inverted at 45 deg nose down at 1000ft. The normal pushing and rolling then goes against
everything your gut tells you to do.
It also reminded me of this crash in the UK, by an aerobatic pilot who was obviously very familiar with spinning this particular glider (although not at
gusty weather I suspect):
