The student pilot stated just prior to landing on runway the airplane began to porpoise. After bouncing on the runway, he felt he had the airplane under control as the wheels settled onto the tarmac.

The pilot stated there were no mechanical failures or malfunctions to the airplane or any of its systems prior to the accident.
