Nicely done. Good use of headwind component. The wind is our friend. It will give us a much slower and safer ground speed at touchdown. There is no need to give up this natural advantage. A bit faster on the rudder pedals, walking the rudder rather than correction with rudder, will help some. A good job with rudder, however. Strong crosswind is so much better for teaching crosswind since it is easy to analyse. The way to discover mischievous light crosswind is to use only rudder dynamically and proactively, walk the rudder, to bracket the centerline. With the centerline nailed (no disruptive turns with adverse yaw) the wing stays level and any crosswind becomes apparent.

Good landing only thing I would comment on is it looks like you added full flaps about 200ft above the runway, curious why? I personally never change configuration of the plane that low to the ground. Nice cross wind landing!

I never understand why fellow GA pilots cross the threshold a mere 2 feet above the ground... like seriously? Way to risk landing short.

Looked like a very gusty landing to be sure. But 15kt crosswind? Didn’t seem to be enough crab angle to justify that claim. Perhaps the wind was at 15kt c. 30 degrees off the nose?
