Having just read all of this I think the elephant in the room, as evidenced by the full right aileron & neutral rudder deflections visible as the aircraft started to spin, is the lack of effective spin training in GA - something that gliding (my world) still does very well. It seems like there are several reasons why he got into the situation but essentially he failed to immediately recover from an incipient spin/wing drop when very low. Sad.
