Your kinda sora supposed to continue the flare process ever slowing and getting the nose to a more normal touchdown attitude...hopefully just before touchdown where your vertical speed has slowed to negative almost nothing...
Conversely, our resident airline pilots have all confessed to some occasional hard landings where the execution of their flare was not as cool as it should have been.
I'm sure they were nowhere near shoving the nose gear (or main gear) back up into the plane...but it's all kind of relative.
