Ely, Nevada - Accident?
If you are thermaling, the glider is not operating anywhere near a structural limit like any max G or speed. Flying an inattentive slow circle makes for the stall and subsequent spin. (Ask me how I know.) So why not just fly out of the unusual attitude? Was there another glider, or not enough distance to the ground? Or perhaps there was a problem with the recovery? It's possible the glider inverted for a moment going well past VNE. This video is an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPWaNxTP-SA
