Narrative:
The pilot reported he was practicing takeoffs and landings on runway 18 with the winds from 240 at 7 knots. The pilot reported that he made two wheel landings and one full stall landing without incident. He reported that on the fourth landing, which was going to be a full stall, the airplane bounced and became airborne. He continued to report that he let the airplane settle back to the runway in a three-point attitude. He reported the next thing he remembered was the airplane veered to the right, the left wing tip contacted the ground, and the airplane nosed over. The pilot stated the airplane stayed on the runway and he exited the airplane through the left side door.

Probable Cause: The pilot failed to maintain directional control of the airplane while landing. A factor associated with the accident was the crosswind.
