Description

Known for producing some of the highest quality gloves and bats on the market, Akadema enters the BBCOR world with the release of the Apocalypse! The Apocalypse BBCOR uses much of the advanced technology applied to the Catapult Ice, but with its own shocking features, this bat is sure to intimidate any pitcher. The Apocalypse is made from 100% Scandium Alloy that is dipped in Glycol to cool down the bat and give it greater strength. In fact, this one-piece design is one of the most durable BBCOR bats on the field. You know that this bat is ready for battle because it is made with the same machine that is used to make Hydra Missles! That alone should be enough to ensure players of the quality and durability of this bat. Many BBCOR bats are top-heavy, but not the Apocalypse. Using Counter Balance Technology, Akadema has created a bat with a lighter feeling barrel, allowing players to increase their swing speed and put more power behind every hit! Akadema: Baseball Is In Our Blood. This bat is BBCOR Certified and legal for play in High School and College. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

Pros: Good balance and swings well.

Cons: Bat dented in three places after only playing three high school games. Not durable enough. This is used as a team bat so even though only three games it has taken more at bats.

Pros: Great, great pop - have tested many of the BBCORs. This one is right up there with all of the best. No problems with denting in over 2000 swings. Excellent grip. Cool graphics. I own an Easton Omen and Marucci Cat 5. This bat has better pop than both.

Cons: End loaded. Mainly for power hitters.

How are the reviews on this Bat? BB Dad
This is actually a brand new bat and as of 7/25/2011, we haven't had any reviews submitted and I haven't spoken with any customers who have used it. However, some of us here have hit with it and I would compare it to the Easton Rival in terms of performance and quality (good overall with decent performance and good durability).
TJ
Is a 31-28 as small of a drop three bat a person can get? my middle school team is little and we are looking for a small drop three. and do you make this bat in a31-28? larry
There are numerous 30-27 bats and 29-26 bats. Just type in those sizes, and everything we have in them, will pop up.
Linda
How does this bat compare to Cat 5 and Omaha? Joed
This bat was dipped in Glycol, that is designed to make the bat have better durability. It is also counterbalanced, for a super lightweight swing. But other than that, all 3 are one piece all alloy bats.
Linda
How is this bat comparable to the rawlings 5150? big blue oc
Both the Akadema Apocalypse and the Rawlings 5150 are great options when looking for a one-piece alloy bat. Here is a link to further compare the Akadema Apocalypse and the Rawlings 5150. http://www.justbats.com/compare/

Is this bat made for power hitters ? DTrain
The Akadema Apocalypse BBCOR: AKAPBB Adult bat will be counterbalanced for a lightweight feel. Typically, power hitters will like an end loaded barrel heavy feel. This bat will not feel like that. It will be very balanced. The design will be a One-Piece all Scandium Alloy construction. This bat is dipped in Glycol for greater strength and durabilty. It will also come with a full 12 month manufacturer's warranty.

About the Brand

In Akadema's short but remarkable history it has become one of America's hottest baseball and softball equipment company for professional, college, high school, and serious youth players. The Akadema phenomenon started with the Professional Glove Series and continues with the Reptilian®, Praying Mantis®, Pro Soft™ and Prodigy™ Glove Series as well as the Amish Wood™, Tacktion™ and Xtension® Aluminum Bat Series. Akadema's ownership attributes increasing market share to their innovative professional baseball and softball product line in contrast to mass-produced products that have little to do with quality, feel, or design to raise the level of play.

Akadema's products are manufactured for professional players but are now accessible to semi pro, college, high school, and serious youth players. Akadema products are still designed with the professional player in mind but competitively priced for the professional player at heart. So it's your turn to think like a professional, play like a professional, and use Akadema Professional!

Akadema now has both baseball and fastpitch softball advisory staffs that they work with closely to implement new ideas. Members of the baseball advisory staff include Hall of Famers Ozzie Smith and Gary Carter as well as Howard Johnson, Reggie Smith, Luis Polonia, Sandy Martinez and many others. Fastpitch stars that are on the advisory staff include Crystl Bustos and Julie Smith. The input on performance from the advisory staff gives Akadema something they cannot put a price on. Their advisors don’t talk about marketing or places to sell the gloves, they just care about performance.
