high lips are good for down rails or really tall rails. low lips for everything else.

and keep in mind a high lip is harder to 270 onto from. and it is harder to build

I like the low too, like you really have to pop onto it. But you lose speed the higher it is. But I don't think you'll have speed probe, that things a monster

if your making a kink rail or a down, deffinetly go tall. but if your just doing a flat rail, maybe a slight up, go for a low lip. the tall lip has sacking potential which nobody likes, so if you like your testicals, make a slope under the down/kink rail so u wont sack. hope this helps!

low so you don't have to worry about nutting the rail, thus throwing bigger tricks

Good choice I was hoping you went with it! High lips just seem pretty sketchy and hard to learn tricks on.
