The flare may have been a bit floaty, but it touches down towards the end of the touch down zone, then he puts a bit up backstick in to stop the nosewheel slamming down. As soon as the nosewheel is down, his hand is off the stick. I don't see any nose down inputs.

I tend to put my hand on the tiller after touchdown as well, just in case I need to put in a greater input than the limits of the rudder pedal based steering.

Not a bad Airbus landing by any stretch of the imagination IMHO.
