That means 9 degree upsweep when you use it for trials.

more upsweep - much more powerful and lighter forearms moves. When i changed Point Dh bar to zoo bar i felt this difference. From zoo to the rage bar too. Backing to dh angles is not good idea for me I ordered tryall carbon and i hope it will be that good as i expect

My wrists are more comfortable being perpendicular to the bar. So yeah, right now I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a bar with a touch...

Remember that upsweep turns to backsweep when you're on the rear wheel. That's why most trials riders orient their bars to have most of the sweep pointed straight up when the bike is on two wheels. It usually ends up to be perfect for rear wheel comfort. And too much would be a bad thing for sure, but 10-15 seems to be healthy amount for most trials riders. There's always a sweet spot and it's very subjective.
