What we saw is not Weiss actually being impaled, it's actually Jaune's foresight in action, seeing exactly what Cinder has planned. So there's still a chance he can stop it. He moves in to block Cinder's path, who hurls her fire spear nonetheless. It hits Jaune, and his Semblance activates and sends it right back to her. Very unlikely that what we saw isn't what actually happened: that Weiss wasn't impaled. Not that what they did is better, because we all know that Weiss is probably going to survive.

But reflecting damage/attacks does seem to be Jaune's semblance.
