Palm-press? Is that something like a push-up or bench-press? So, to palm-press the floor, does one have to remove a section of floor, lay on his/her back, and then raise it up like a barbell?

Hybrids are fine for those that prefer them, I was just providing my updated perspective. Wish I had seen some hybrid remorse posts when I was initially researching. If I had I may have done more extensive test riding and/or more thorough research.
