The 370-hour private pilot, who reported having accumulated a total of 133-hours in the same make and model aircraft, lost directional control of the tailwheel-equipped single-engine airplane while attempting to land on a 6.080-foot long, by 100-foot wide concrete runway. The pilot reported that while landing on runway 34, the airplane landed very hard which caused the airplane to bounce-back into the air. The pilot reported that she applied full engine power in an attempt to abort the landing; however, the airplane swerved-off the runway as the left wing struck the ground. The airplane was reported to remained airborne for about 200-yards prior to impacting a dirt embankment and came to rest in an upright position. At the time of the mishap the winds were reported as light and variable. The homebuilt airplane had accumulated a total of 304.5 hours since new. The pilot did not report any mechanical malfunctions that would have prevented normal flight operations.
Probable Cause: The pilot's improper recovery from a bounced landing.
