Hey Lou, be aware that you can't run trim. You can, but you would have to relocate your start/stop switch to somewhere else on the ski.

trim would be easily possible if someone would make some 7/8ths bars with very quick rise bends out of the bracket,leaving longer straight runs in back of the grips

You could just go to this start/stop switch and then have plenty of room for your trim.
But I still don't get it why put a rise in the bars when the pole lifts up to above your head.

only benefit I can see is for flat water rolls. It lets you get the pole lower. But your upper body would still be higher up. You need your upper body to be low. you want to have as much mass closest to the center axis of the ski while rolling.

Ride a ski with them before making a decision. You can feel the difference. A very nice mod.

I'm running the RRP 75mm bars with a modified ProTaper universal bar kit (cut the 7/8ths nub off and swapped hardware for stainless) and love the setup but did notice the same exact thing. But I also cut down my pole again and between that and the extra rise it moves you forward in the tray thus making it harder for my knees to clear the back edge of the tray (note that I'm 6'4"). Even with this the riding benefit is greater than the cons. Biggest is that the rise give me a more natural stance with the pole being lower and away, no more being belly on the pole and smacking the F out of my knee on the turnplate.
I know with the RRP you need to figure something out if you want trim, like the switch posted above or ones like (I think) 0.# is running. But I don't have or need trim so I'm not worried about that. All together I spent less than $100 on bars and the mount to use on my existing Xmetal plate. I doubt those new Blowsion bars and mount will be anywhere close to that.

thats the switch I had to run,just more $ more trouble,cops ticket for no lanyard here as well...Im working on getting some 7/8ths thick strong alum bars made to work with the xmetal clamps and trim,since no one else wanted to,along with some other parts everyone is overlooking that oem sucks and costs way to much
