A demonstration of rotor - in this case behind a building - but the same occurs behind the sharp ridges we fly. Lord's \ Rushup is the obvious example, but Treak has a rotor-forming ridge that also affects top-landing behind it. Occurs behind trees too - behind the plantation on the way from Lord's lower to upper, for example.

Notice how at times, the turbulence extends well above the height of the obstacle.
