I'm surprised at how often I see pilots reclining in their harnesses until the last moment of landing. I try to be aware of several zones during a landing approach. Above a few hundred feet, I'm responding to turbulence to keep the glider flying properly. As I get lower, I start thinking about my reserve, since my response time is limited. Lower still, I rock forward in my harness and get ready for a parachute landing fall.
