I'm no expert, however, he started with a full stall, couldn't hold the brakes down, hence the wing pitching as his hands came up, when he did release the stall he went into a negative spin, the left side if the wing was flying and the right was stalled, cravat on the right side, then he tossed his laundry. A better option would have been to pull left brake, fly straight and get the cravat out, he had the altitude. At least he was over water, but was he on radio?
Not with Jocky, then.

I think he was trying a helicopter after that. His cravat came a LONG time after he exited the stall.

that just doesn't look like a fun ride. is there anything he could have done to regain control of his wing without reserve?

This is not a full stall. This is negative spiral.
