    Great question. It will feel different on each kind of point, the fixed point being a harder landing and the bouncy one giving you a bit more give. This also gives us a sense of how the timing of our use of momentum will change. You might have to anticipate the landing to use it to find the back arch on the fixed point, which can lead to trying the arch too soon. The bouncy point means you have more time but most likely have to arch and press longer. You may have more runs on the bouncy point as the system is taking some of the force of the drop while the fixed point, the softest part of that system is your body. The bouncy point may be nicer in the long run, try the above suggestion of riding out the drop staying long and engaged without attempting the back arch to really understand the timing of the rotations and bounce.
    Happy training!
