I don't think those landings are representative of how you are
*supposed* to do it. They should be coming in straight, and aligned
with the runway, but the airplane should be banked over as if in a turn.
The ailerons, combined with rudder are used to offset the force of the
crosswind. That's the plan, at least.

Prolly a dumb question but doesn't one wing drop pretty low during that
manouver?


Here's a great tutorial on crosswind landings. Although written for a
simulator, the methods described are accurate.
Both methods are described, dipping and crabbing.
