Wow! 2nd solo flight. I am glad he is ok.

Yeah. and you can HEAR and see how hard the wind is blowing. His solo endorsement should have had a maximum wind and crosswind component.

This wouldn't have happened when landing on the nose in a Cherokee 235. Ask me how I know.

Mine did when I was a student. CFI left nothing to chance.
