Narrative:
The aircraft touched the ground with one wing during the take-off roll and overturned.

CONCLUSION
It is the assessment of the Accident Investigation Board that a combination of local wind conditions and turbulence during the take-off run and the glider's wingspan size caused the glider to bank so rapidly to the left that the pilot could not prevent the left wing tip from hitting the ground with the current effect of full aileron and rudder deflections.
