Narrative:
Crosswind crab had aircraft landing during routine touch-and-go landing with wheels hitting runway 30 at pwk on a slight right angle. I, as PIC, kept the aircraft going straight without hard left braking or turning to reduce side pressure on front wheel. Aircraft went onto grass, no damage. Aircraft was checked out 'ok.'
