There is a YT of a formation of AT-6's "water skiing" on a lake.
It's cool, and stupid.

In the "do it this way" clip, doesn't look "close" at all to me. Push Nose down, roll right, level out. Good timing, no tears.

I don't think there was Stall. "Pulling through" isn't what our pilot needed. He needed to arrest his descent, and he appears to have begun to input correct controls just as his left wings snagged the turf.....

In a turn with roll at or near ninety degrees, "Up" is sideways. We got a glimpse of correct controls just as the right wings caught the airstream after cartwheeling, a bit late....?

imo
