The pilot lost directional control after touchdown and the conventional gear conversion airplane ground looped. The pilot said he was practicing touch-and-go takeoffs and landings in calm wind conditions to familiarize himself with the conventional gear airplane. After completing several wheel landings he began practicing three-point landings. He stated that upon touchdown he lost control of the airplane and it ground looped. The right main landing gear broke as a result of the ground loop and the airplane skidded to a stop. The pilot stated that the airplane and engine had no mechanical failures or malfunctions during the flight.
