Default RE: Does the Hot Spot bounce like a Kangaroo?

I used to bounce my Kangaroo until I figured out to bring it in nose high and touch the mains only on landing, let the nose settle in. After that I never bounced it anymore, just greased it in. I've seen hotspots bounce bad too, but they are heavier so they might stick better. Every jet I've flown, if I did not land mains first they would bounce, just my experience, but most tricycle gear airplanes I've flown will bounce if you 3 point them.
