[Pilot] was flying her Aircraft X as Pilot in Command at the ZZZ airport; landing Runway XX. I was monitoring from the right seat. [Pilot] was cleared for the option on Runway XX by the ZZZ Tower from the left downwind of Runway XX approximately midfield. She initiated proper airspeed and flap configuration for a stabilized approach from pattern altitude. She applied correct airspeed; pitch; bank; and flap configurations while flying base and final approach. The aircraft maintained proper airspeed; pitch; and crosswind correction while on final maintaining the centerline of the runway as it flew a stabilized glide angle down to the runway. When transitioning into the landing phase; she began a flare and proper attitude to land the airplane. As the airplane was about to land; the attitude of the airplane changed suddenly in a way that was consistent with large rapid change in the characteristics of the wind; [Pilot] attempted to initiate a go-around with my immediate assistance. However; the plane lost directional control; veering to the right and eventually coming to a stop with a nose down attitude.
Pilot Monitoring reported Pilot in Command lost control while landing in a crosswind.
