I prefer the crow hop as long as the momentum is shifting as the ball is being caught. Dont stop and restart befor and after the catch

Both of those examples use too much time. The best crow hop is the quick foot replacement type or slight cross over. That bicycle kick type is overcooked, usually I see players who do this as being in the air a lot longer than they need to be, the player in the other clip uses too many extra long steps to get the throw off with the replant.
when in doubt...look to MLB

I prefer the crow hop and the momentum of the throw it gives

According to umpires assessing pitchers neither is an advantage...... ;-)

In softball there's not enough time for a crow hop so I don't teach it. One step replant or just throw off the back leg if you have a strong arm.
