A crabbing approach and kicking out the yaw before touchdown is a common technique in gliders. It's the only one I've used to date.
This video was a student's first crosswind landing. (Crosswind coming from the left.) I deliberately had him fly a very high/long/wide pattern to give him lots of time to see the effect of crosswind drift on downwind and final, the need to crab.
The first 35 seconds of the video are at about 3x speed, then it goes to normal speed.
The sun angle was also helpful, giving us a shadow of the glider that helped judge height above the runway.
The glider was an L-23 Super Blanik:

Just before touchdown I was on the rudders to kick out the yaw and reduce side loads on the landing gear. (It seems that for most of us...learning to control yaw is one of the last skills we develop.)

What idiot went out flying at 24kt crosswind on approach/departure and 40kt in 5000ft?
Oh wait. That was me.
Still nice at the lake but quite stormy at the Black Forest. What a ride.

"A red #ridleybikes #CROSSWIND CX #bicycle is parked against a mile marker on the shoulder of a narrow road. Behind the bicycle are a few coconut trees and grassland. There's a large black buffalo feeding on the grass in the field. In the background, there's some smoke rising up from a few huts. Behind the huts, the sun is rising in the east and streaming down on the whole landscape"

The advantages of doing a #circuitous #route via #bike, rather than a #ThereAndBack #track is that, on a #windy day like today, you get a fair share of #headwind, #crosswind and #tailwind. There’s no gusting today and so it’s easy to remain steady on the #cycle.
