Narrative:The pilot reported that he performed two low approaches over, and a touch-and-go wheel landing on, the gravel bar before attempting a full-stop landing. During the full-stop landing, the airplane struck a hole, which resulted in the pilot increasing brake pressure and the airplane subsequently nosing over. The pilot reported no mechanical anomalies with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot’s inadvertent application of excessive brake pressure during landing on a rough surface, which resulted in a nose-over.
