The thread is split in three parts, cross wind landing techniques in general, individual ideas and lastly Airbus procedure. As far as you are concerned only the last applies to you. I recommend you obtain and read Airbus document 20th Fight safety conference LATERAL RUNWAY EXCURSIONS Cross wind Design and Operational Considerations which was held between 24th and 27th Mar2014. The salient features of that are follow auto pilot logic i.e.
1. Wings level and crabbed approach
2. Flare
3.Decrab
4. Ground control
In high cross wind and especially contaminated runway partial decrab may be required using crab angle and bank angle, use roll control only if required to maintain aircraft on centre line.
In the19th safety conference in gusty wind conditions use of ground speed mini(ATHR in managed speed) is recommended.
If you do something else as suggested by some people here and have an incident you will find yourself a very lonely man.
