NTSB narrative
The Student Pilot reported that they were practicing a short field landing and that during the flare, the aircraft rose to about ten feet above the ground and then stalled. He attempted to go around by adding power, but the airplane dropped to the runway which cracked the left landing gear resulting in substantial damage. There were no reported problems with the Light Sport Aircraft.
