Narrative:
Taking off from san carlos airport, at approximately 75-100 ft AGL. The engine lost power and I retarded the throttle to idle and landed in the remaining runway. Due to the length of the field I went off the end into the dirt blowing one tire. The cause of the power loss is still unknown.
