Dad
Pros: So far daughter loves it.
Cons: Yet to play 1st full tournament
Sam
Pros: My daughter loves this bat! She's 13 and has already hit a single, a double, and a triple the first week of owning this bat. The FlexZilla gives her a lighter option to hit faster pitchers with the same action as the TechZilla.
Cons: If anything the price, but no cons to the engineering
Bell66
Pros: I got this bat for my nine year old and she's been hitting doubles all the time and some triples, but she's not that fast so her triple would have been a home run for a girl who has speed.
Cons: The only thing so far is price but you get what you pay for so get the bat and get the hits.
Great product Parent/Coach coach
Pros: My daughter has always been a good contact hitter but getting her to hit with power has been an issue. We bought the bat and immediately noticed small infield hits turned into hard line drives. She used composite bats in the past (yes, including Xeno composite material) and the pop she gets from this bat is much better and more importantly more consistent. It's not if she's going to hit the ball hard it's where she's going to hit it. While NO bat is going to make any hitter an overnight homerun threat every at bat it does provide the pop reviews say. Plus the Flexzilla composite handle delivers an ounce of weight reduction than the original Techzilla so you can get an extra inch in length for the same weight. Anderson products have the best pop and largest sweet spot on any bats I've seen used on a consistent basis. Would buy again and again.
Cons: Little spendy but you get what you pay for
Great Pop, A Little End-Loaded Connecticut Rockets coach
Pros: The FlexZilla is a great bat for a smaller, more advanced player looking for a metal/composite combo bat with a lot of pop. There is no better barrel than an Anderson alloy barrel. My daughter says the sweet spot is huge, and her hitting instructor says she noticed the ball jumping off the bat better since my daughter started using the FlexZilla. The simple gray with white and red graphics gives the bat a distinct, tough look compared to other crazy paint jobs, which can be a plus for some players.
Cons: Anderson describes the FlexZilla as a bat with a "balanced feel" but it actually feels a little end-loaded, especially compared to other bats with a -11 ratio. This seems to be a common trait of Anderson bats, and it is not an issue for my daughter. Just something to be aware of when comparing options.

I am looking for some feedback on this bat. My daughter is 11 and plays 12u travel ball. I thought the balanced FlexZilla may be better for her than the rocket flex. She is only 4'9 and 80lbs. Do you think this bat has as much pop as most of the high end comp bats? I am a fan of the 2 piece comp/metal bats in my slow pitch playing. DB
Do u make this bat in a drop 12? stick
How does this bat compare to the Xeno, in balance and stiffness. zulee

My daughter loves the Anderson RocketTech. What bat do you recommend to replace that bat? She is 5'4'', 117 lbs, and has fast bat speed. wicked softball
I am 5 foot 8 and weigh 130 pounds. I am a power hitter. Would this bat be something you recommend? keykey9
About the Brand
A High-Tech Engineer, a Sales Manager for a chemical company, and a Professional Yacht Racer with a background in mechanical engineering are not likely to have much in common. But they did, and still do. You guessed it…SOFTBALL.
Our passion for “Diamond” sports goes back many years, but it was about 10 years ago that we started manufacturing and private labeling our bats for other companies. In 1999, Steven Anderson designed a new multi-wall high-performance bat that featured our patented “Power Arch” technology. After thorough testing, it was ready for the company that we designed it for, but they were going through a transition period and were not ready to move on it.
Here was the bummer, our team was counting on using these bats in a big tournament that was just a month away and we could not put their graphics on the bats until the deal between the two of us was inked.
Steven offered a solution … they are already certified by the governing bodies so why don’t we put our own graphics on them and use them in the tourney. What a great idea and that is exactly what we did.
I was driving to the plant the next morning wearing my championship “T” shirt and had no idea that when I arrived at 6:30 am that the message machine would be filled and the phones would be ringing. The messages and the calls were all basically the same … “How do I get my hands on one of those new Anderson Techwraps”?
That is how it started, and since then we have released the FlexTech, FastTech, RocketTech, TechZilla, Pyrotech, and we are not done.
Let me tell you a little secret……THE BEST IS YET TO COME…GO DEEP, GO VERY VERY DEEP
