Hi HazelNuts39,
They didn't go below 100 ft RadAlt?
Are you are confusing 30'?

"The flight mode changes to flare mode when the aircraft passes ​50 ft RA as it descends to land.
The system memorizes the attitude at ​50 ft, and that attitude becomes the initial reference for pitch attitude control.
As the aircraft descends through ​30 ft, the system begins to reduce the pitch attitude, reducing it to ​2 ° nose down over a period of ​8 s. This means that it takes gentle nose-up action by the pilot to flare the aircraft."
