  Rigid superhydrophobic materials have the ability to repel millimetric water
drops, in typically 10 ms. Yet, most natural water-repellent materials can be
deformed by impacting drops. To test the effect of deformability, we perform
impacts of non-wetting drops onto thin ($\sim$ 10 \micro m), circular PDMS
membranes. The bouncing mechanism is markedly modified compared to that on a
rigid material: the liquid leaves the substrate as it is kicked upwards by the
membrane. We show that the rebound is controlled by an interplay between the
dynamics of the drop and that of the soft substrate, so that we can
continuously vary the contact time by playing on the membrane's characteristics
and reduce it up to 70\%.
