Read the full NTSB narrative

The 31 hour student pilot was practicing touch-and-go landings on runway 24. He said that while rolling on the runway on the second touch-and-go, a gust of wind lifted the aircraft and set it onto a grass area to the left of the runway. The wind was reported to be from 190 degrees at 9 knots. The student stated that he tried to steer the aircraft against the wind change while stopping the aircraft. He said that he was unable to stop the aircraft before it dropped off the cleared grassy area into a rougher area with taller grass and debris. Also, he stated that as the aircraft stopped, it flipped over, nose first, and came to rest upside down.
