Ask A QuestionWould it be possible to get the Rawlings VELO 32" 23 oz. with a different grip?
Unfortunately, the 2013 Rawlings VELO: SLVEL9 Senior League only comes with the grip displayed on the website. We do not have the option to customize the grip.
My 13 yr old really wants a Rawlings Velo this yr. Problem is he really needs to be swinging a-8 this yr which Rawlings does not make. Ideally he would use a 31/23. He has been swinging a 26.5 oz wood bat in the cage and handling it pretty well. My question is do we jump up to a -5 31/26 Velo or maybe go with a -9 32/23 and use a choke up ring to get it to a 31". Does adding the ring make it like swinging a -8 or not. He plays on a major level travel team and I want to do what is best for him Thanks
For a 13 year old who has been swinging a 26.5 oz. wood bat with relative ease, I would definitely recommend a -5 bat over a -9 bat. Reason being, before too long he'll be at the High School level where he will have to use a -3 bat. By using a -5 bat now, the transition to a -3 will be much easier. Since the choke-up ring is on the handle of the bat, it won't add any to the swing weight of the bat, and it will still swing and feel like a -9.
Is this bat as balanced as the -10, -5, or BBCOR series?
Yes, the 2013 Rawlings VELO: SLVEL9 Senior League bat features a very balanced swing weight.
Product Description
New for 2013! Velocity. It's what many swings are lacking, and often times it's not the fault of the player. Many bats are manufactured without swing speed in mind. Rawlings set out to solve this problem, and the result is the new line of VELO bats. Rawlings employs what it calls "the science of balance" to create a bat that not only has a remarkably balanced swing weight, but also a much lower M.O.I. (moment of inertia) than its competitors. This is achieved through weight isolation and a new Comp-Lite end cap. This new end cap allows the end of the bat to swing much lighter through the zone and helps players improve the mechanics of their swing. Using Rawlings' proprietary Bi/fusion process, the Comp-Lite end cap is fused to the barrel that is constructed from their premier 5150 Alloy. Regarded as one of the superior alloys on the market, Rawlings' 5150 Alloy has been formulated for higher strength and increased flex to give it the ultimate combination of durability and trampoline effect. 5150 Alloy is a huge part of why Rawlings bats consistently perform at the maximum allowable level by today's standards. Rawlings: The New Standard of Speed! The VELO features the new USSSA 1.15 BPF stamp. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!
