Thats Caused buy what we call Slide Slip,

its the difference in airpressure hitting the body of the plane causes it to YAW, it does slf correct due to the planes centre of gravity and postions of the centre of pressure.

in the video it looks like the pilot has tried to corret this error which has only contributed to the error making him wobble as such( left wind rasies then fails then raises again)

bit of useless info for you guys.

That's what I call a crosswind! I'm surprised they attempted a landing at all!

I know it did not land but it reminds me of an old aadage..........
a good landing is any landing that you can walk away from and a great landing is when you can re-use the airplane :D
