That point (the edge of the flat bridge) is 8 inches higher. I'm thinking that it will be much harder to do. That most successful bounce passes are going to go through the slot between the bridges. In my practices, that was certainly how it worked out. Say a third as many successful passes. Remember every failed pass is a free slam dunk for the opponents (not really, but you get the idea)...
