Does not appear to be anything other than some line guy at a local airshow doing his thing.
The demo pilots for Airbus do not level off and suck up the gear as in this video. They generally just do a climb with max AoA.
In this video, it appears the guy sucks up the gear and then just goes full aft stick in the 319. Nice way to get a tail strike...
