When the mains touch down the nose is in the air for about 2 seconds or so.
the problem is that you are landing with the aircraft in a poor attitude.
all aeroplanes need to be landed on the main wheels in a tail low attitude.
No, if the nose is in the air for that long he is NOT landing it in a poor attitude, 2 seconds might not sound that long, but try counting out (one thousand and one, one thousand and two) when YOU are landing - I doubt that you will hold the nose off much longer than that (unless you have the speed too high).
