His last recorded flight was 4 years before the flight review, and his last recorded tailwheel flight was 8 years before the flight review.
Probable Cause: the pilot's improper recovery from a bounced landing. Factors associated with the accident were the uncontrolled porpoise encountered and the pilot's lack of recent experience in tailwheel airplanes.
