Well, what are you doing wrong with the Spacewalk landings? Overshooting, or stalling on final and dropping in short, coming in to fast for you to keep it under control and keep the touchdown "soft" ?

Sticks do have one advantage over something like a Spacewalker, the wing is higher up and the gear is easily reinforced, making capt kangaroo landings less likely to damage anything. Though some of the sticks have a low-mounted horzontal stab that can be trouble. I think the U.S. has the tail raised to mid-fuse though.
