Hand Position For Pl Leans

When doing PL leans, does it matter which way you turn your hands?  I find having my hands face backwords (fingers pointing toward my feet) to feel more comfortable for my wrists, but in the videos the athletes hand's are facing forwards.

 

Is this simply a matter or preference or is there an advantage towards having the hands face a certain way?

For newcomers to GST turning the hands all the back isn't recommended because the elbow hasn't had the time to adapt to straight arm work yet and can be over stressed. Any position up to 90 turned out is good at first.
