Probable cause

The pilot's improper flare and inadequate recovery from a bounced landing, which resulted in a loss of airplane control.

NTSB narrative

The pilot said that the airplane landed on all three wheels and bounced back into the air. The airplane stalled, impacted the runway, and bounced into the air again. The airplane then landed on its nosewheel, which resulted in a broken wheel and a flat tire. The airplane then slid off the left side of the runway, where the left wing contacted the ground and sustained substantial damage.
