In the feat, we see a bit of lightning around her behaving like lightning. She's clearly flying on her own power, through visibly moving clouds and such, there are flashes. She grabs the lasso. She hangs it out there gently, spinning the end a bit, but CLEARLY not bullet-timing even - gravity is having a notable effect on the cord, even though she's flying at SOME speed. She throws the lasso while the strike isn't there yet. There is a strike lightning strike that stays put, disappears, then it reappears in the same path, and the lasso grabs it. She swings (huh?) on it, then does it again. And again, she throws the visibly affected by gravity and wind and such lasso before the lightning strikes, the lightning strikes, and the lasso grabs it. She swings. Then she makes the Superman pose (because of course she does) and continues flying on her own.
So:
She could already fly on her own, she was already doing it very clearly.
For some reason, she decides to swing off of two lightning strikes.
Goes right back to flying after.
And for both swings, she was swinging the cord before the lightning struck. Given her connection to lightning, I'd posit that she knew it was going to be there because Zeus Juice in her veins or something. Also, the first strike was there for a LONG time, and she was very clearly not bullet timing or anything in the scene. You can literally see the clouds moving around her in real time.
The visual effect is cool, it would have maybe made sense if she did it before she proved she could fly under her own power, but then, the writing isn't exactly Citizen Cain or anything. For me, though, it doesn't do anything for her speed, which is already established as "bullet timer" when she doesn't completely forget to use it. That feat definitely isn't bullet timing.
