Default "Flying" your glider on the ground after a landout during athunderstorm or alternatives?

For the few folks that've not seen it, here's how the gliders and towplanes handled 55 knot gusts at the US Air Force Academy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_WmjWAGkLI

I'd like to hear what they plan to do the next time this happens (if they're unable to avoid the situation).
