Narrative:The solo student pilot reported that, during the landing flare, he pulled back on the controls too sharply and that the airplane then ballooned and landed hard. Unbeknownst to him, the propeller struck the runway, and he then went around the traffic pattern again. He landed and taxied the airplane back to the ramp without further incident.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the firewall and lower fuselage.
The student reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
