The pilot reduced the power to idle and was over the threshold of the grass runway (34) about 10 miles per hour faster the he liked. After touching and realizing that he had used up too much runway, he decided to go around, but his speed was too slow to takeoff. Deciding to steer for clear ground and hope for the best, the airplane went up over the bordering taxiway which was perpendicular to the runway, down the other side, bounced and flipped over. At 0955, the weather observation facility located at the airport reported wind 180 degrees at 7 knots.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain proper approach speed and landing touch down point resulting in a runway overrun. A factor was the tailwind condition.
