Jeez,. .. .Looking at that rotation rate (when he decided to actualy start climbing that is) I'm not even sure it's possible under normal control law.. .. .a most unusual t/o technique.

This post must have been read by a TAM Ppruner because I watched a very similar A319 takeoff from SDU between 1700 and 1800 today (Sunday). Not quite as low and not as steep on climb but definitely building up speed until gear retracted then vroom! . .. .Quite conservative compared to the Eurowings airshow takeoff but then the TAM 319 was carrying a load. I've seen a VASP 737 do it more spectacularly, actually coming down after takeoff to under 100ft, screaming across the bay halfway to Sugar Loaf and then climbing steeply enough to clear it with a wide margin. That must have been a Saturday - light load - but I'll bet it scared the living daylights out of the few pax on board.
