Default Anything new in to combat motion sickness?

Our club has had good luck with Ginger. We've used REAL ginger ale, candied
ginger, and ginger capsules. The ginger needs to be consumed a little while
prior to the flight. Eating it while climbing into the glider seems to
reduce effectiveness.

The MythBusters did a segment on motion sickness and found Ginger to be the
only really effective non-prescription, non-drowsy inducing remedy.
