Accident Summary
During a practice session involving traffic patterns and full-stop landings, a pilot reported that the first landing was satisfactory, touching down just beyond the runway numbers. The second traffic pattern progressed normally until the final approach, when the pilot noted that the airspeed was too high. The airplane touched down past the runway numbers and bounced "high". The pilot stated that he misjudged the severity of the bounce and did not apply engine power to correct it. Subsequently, the airplane began to porpoise and became "uncontrollable".
