Narrative:

In ground effect, realized that gear was not down. Step was dragging on concrete. When I dropped gear air speed decreased and I sank to the ground. The gear was part of the way out. I didn't do my gumps check and did not check for a green light for gear. My mind was on why air speed was high and not coming down as I was on final.
