Narrative:
The pilot attempted a landing with a relative wind about 100 degrees from the right, at 7 knots. Upon touchdown, the airplane veered to the left. The pilot noted an insufficient response to right rudder inputs, and aborted the landing. The airplane lifted off again, but the left wing struck the ground and the airplane cartwheeled. The pilot had about 98 hours of flight time, and less than 5 hours in make and model.

Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain control of the airplane. Factors included the pilot's inexperience in the airplane and his failure to compensate for the crosswind condition.
