My view Perhaps a bit more complex than just wind under the wing.
Also, lifted tail too early, insufficient airflow over tail fin and rudder to counteract the crosswind, exceeded cross wind limit, no rudder seems to have been applied in attempt to keep straight to counter, wheelbarrow into wind was inevitable. Unfortunately, a classic tail dragger incident. 1. Don't exceed crosswind limit. 2. Full into wind aileron and opposite rudder as needed to keep straight at low speed. 3. Keep tail wheel down on ground until adequate airspeed to give rudder authority. 4. Use rudder to counter swing into wind as tail is lifted. 5. More time needed on tail draggers perhaps.

Because his landing gear had such high ability to compress, he couldn't keep his upwind wing low. Reminder of how important it is to not let the wind get under the upwind wing when taking off or landing in strong crosswinds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJmtTNqXB64 More on this on YouTube if interested.
