Yes and rotate your body to a (close to) horizontal flying position. You will have more control because your chest is closer to the basebar. Most harnesses have a slider mechanism to switch between the upright flying position for start and landing and the horizontal flying position to fly in. Now you are essentiially flying in landing mode top to bottom. Give it a try! You can practice it on the ground, just hang your harness somewhere and get in:)
I looked at your videos from last year where you lowered your hang point. It seems to me that you are still hanging too high, this could be that your harness is not set correctly. This may be an illusion due to the camera. When I am flying, my harness is 4 fingers above the base bar. Ask the other pilots who you fly with.

Thank you for the comment. I fully agree to lower 2" more. Another problem is the hanging point, as the hanging point tends to shift front side during thermal soaring, my head went up. I can push my hanging point back by foot, but need to keep my foot stretch all the time. Maybe I should get "rotor" or other harness.
Cheapest replacement would be the Aeros Myth 3 they hang right. I have a harness like yours currently. It hangs from Your CG so is hard to tip forward and get up right. Need to kick my feet up to tip head down. That's an old design from early 2000s. Modern harnesses hang from behind the CG. So it's easier to tip forward.
That place cooks. Flew there in the US nationals back in the 90s
WHACK 😮
Lower your harness by at least 6 or 7 inches.

@@shinichikurita6396sounds like you need to put a price of foam packer in the bottom of your harness at the foot.

But yeah yhe way your hanging will make you feel like you have less control.
