bounceable

Able to spring

Bounceable describes something capable of being bounced, whether literally like a ball or figuratively like an idea that can be tossed around for feedback.

Is this ball bounceable on concrete?

The term appears most often in casual contexts where someone wants to test whether something—a concept, a draft, a proposal—is ready to be shared with others for their reaction.

I have a few bounceable ideas for the project.
