The other thing that you might look for is whether the rebounder can actually jump for a rebound when the opponent has a hand(s) on their shoulders.
That's on old trick. Put a hand or an elbow on your opponent's shoulder while you're getting position under the board. If your opponents jumps, it ain't be be too high with you leaning on their shoulder. And when you jump, you're using the opponent to help your jump, and at the same time you're stopping that opponent from jumping with you. Judgement call all the way- re: advantage/disadvantage.
