Yeah, a more pronounced pushover the second time.

What he is doing is unloading the wing (decreasing the angle of attack) at the top of his pullup, which removes the problem of stalling and potentially spinning. If the wing isn't making lift, it can't stall..

These kinds of low-speed, nose-high recoveries are fun to practice (at altitude, of course) - it's interesting to see what you can do with a glider at speeds below stall.
