After touch down on runway 33, the pilot reported that he noticed the windsock pointing the direction he was heading and he felt that his brakes were not functioning. With 800 feet remaining and about 40 mph on the airspeed indicator, the pilot aborted the landing. After raising the flaps, adding full throttle, and pushing the carburetor heat off, the pilot stated that he 'pulled the elevator all the way back.' Skid marks were found on about the last 1,000 feet of the runway. The winds at the airport were reported from 350 at 8 knots. The airplane impacted trees at the bottom of a slope beyond the overrun. No malfunction was found with the airframe or engine.
