The pilot reported that, while landing on a private grass airstrip with a crosswind from the left, he determined the airplane was floating too far down the airstrip and reduced the power. The airplane touched down and bounced, he added power, but the airplane bounced again and then landed on the nosewheel. He taxied to the hangar without further incident. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage aft of the nosewheel. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The pilot added that, during the landing roll, he observed the windsock, which indicated a wind shift from a left crosswind to a gusting tailwind.
Probable Cause: The pilot's improper landing flare, which resulted in a hard, bounced landing.
