Narrative:
On takeoff roll aircraft began to pull to the left. Corrective rudder input was used; however plane remained pulling to the left of centerline. Pilot flying aborted takeoff below V1 when I deemed the situation unsafe to continue. Aircraft was stopped on runway and tower contacted. Aircraft then taxied to the taxi way and asked permission to hold there to diagnose and debrief what happened. Due to high winds and aileron input not being sufficient enough for correction we believe the aircraft began to become directionally uncontrollable. Despite corrective actions with rudders the plane continued and then an abort was initiated upon losing the centerline. No injuries were sustained on board and the second attempted takeoff went without issue.
