Default Low-wing Trainer?

I've been flying about 1.5 years with Zagi's but I'm ready for a bit more speed and power. I'm interested in most all areas of aerobatics so naturally the Cap 232 stood out. Almost everyone says it's way too fast for a first gas plane, so I had to buy it. Deal is done, it hangs from the ceiling right now. But now I'm considering a more modest trainer or a profile plane for an in-between, to get me ready. My question is how bad is it to really fly a low-wing? Some people make it sound like flying with half a wing or compared to running with jello. Is it really this tough?

Thanks in advance
