The solo student pilot was flying in the traffic pattern and was intending to perform a touch-and-go landing. During the takeoff, the airplane "veered heavily to the left." The student attempted to correct the veer without success. The student then chose to land the airplane on grassy terrain. During the landing, the airplane bounced twice and nosed over, which resulted in substantial damage to the right wing and the rudder. The student reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The student pilot’s failure to maintain yaw control during takeoff, which resulted in an aborted takeoff and subsequent landing on grassy terrain, during which the airplane bounced and then nosed over.
