According to the pilot, as he approached the airport he was cleared to land. The approach was uneventful, and the touchdown was a normal crosswind landing. During the landing roll out he felt a gust of wind, which resulted in the airplane drifting to the right. He applied full left rudder and brakes in an attempt to keep the airplane centered on the runway. However, the airplane veered off of the right side of the runway into the grass and came to rest inverted, which resulted in substantial damage to the left wing and vertical stabilizer. At the time of the accident, the wind in the area was reported from 010 degrees at 7 knots. The pilot did not report any mechanical anomalies that would have precluded normal operation prior to the accident.
