When my little brother was diagnosed with dylexia during the seventies, my mother remembered that he'd never crawled but had gone straight to walking at 9 months, and most of the experts agreed that this was probably related.
A few years later, after my sister was born, we looked through old baby books and found out that he had actually walked and crawled right on schedule, and *I* was the one who had never crawled and walked at 9 months. At the time, I was in gifted ed and had just won the presidential fitness award. Based on my personal experience, anyway, not crawling didn't seem to cause any problems...
