Using Elusive Jump to avoid cracks is one of the coolest looking things you can do in this game.
You know what I do, though? I offer to help people when they shout for help in Ul'dah! Then when we're done, I say, "Hey, I need <insert thing you wanna do here>. Anyone interested?"
Try it out. You'd be surprised how much you get done when you help someone first.
