Flat tails vs rockered tails for jump landings

Would flat tails vs rockered tails make a difference in getting a softer landing/reducing shin bang when you are hitting jumps in the park all day? Ive got these and was wondering if they were contributing to my shin bang last season or not.

Shin bang is almost entirely attributed to ill-fitted boots.

Rockered tails are a little more forgiving if you land off. Stiff directional skis will fuck yo day up if you land too far backseat.
