Probable cause

The pilot’s loss of control during landing rollout.

NTSB narrative

The pilot and passenger were returning from a local flight. During landing rollout, the tail rose off the runway, and the airplane nosed over. It came to rest upside down on the runway centerline with no injuries to the occupants. The airframe sustained damage to the fuselage, both wings, the vertical stabilizer, and the rudder. The pilot stated there were no issues with the airplane and thought that applying less rudder and brake pressure might have prevented the accident.
