2014 Rip It Air Fastpitch Devon Thomas coach

Pros: Has really good pop up and down the barrel. Really swings light. Great graphics and color scheme.

Cons: Would like it to be heavier like a 25 or 26 ounce option. I have both a 24 ounce and a 23 ounce. In batting practice the end cap of the 23 ounce cracked and came out when a ball was hit off the end of the bat.

Very Nice Bat dakota.roman player

Pros: The bat had a very nice pop when it hit the ball. Very nice grip to the handle. Don't think I would even need bating gloves. I really liked the weight of it too, not to heavy or light. Also when hit at the end of the bat it didn't sting my hands. Over all a very nice bat, and loved it!

Cons: None

I love Rip-It! Elyssa Reyes player

Pros: I love Rip-It! I own the white Air and I was skeptical at first, but after my first swing I was convinced this was the bat for me! With my Rip-It bat I smashed a homerun ball over the fence, denting my grandfathers car. Swinging the new Rip-It only proves that this already top of the line bat is able to keep its edge above the competition. Rip it is awesome and the customer service is great!

Cons: None

Good For Slap Hitting Ronni Ravid player

Pros: It was a good bat for slapping. For any slap-only hitters its an ideal bat

Cons: Lacked in the power aspect, I could get my hands through much faster but I felt like I lost a lot of power.

Great Bat! Kerrigan Travens player

Pros: Swinging the Rip It was a lot different then what I am used to and what I've used my entire softball career but it definitely was a good "new" feel. It feels good to hit the ball on the end of the bat or hit it off the handle and still have pop/power. Great bat!

Im hooked! Elynora Borgen player

Pros: I've been a loyal Rocket Tech user for years. Once I tried a rip-it bat for the first time, I fell in love. Even when I hit on the handle and tip, it felt like I hit the sweet spot. I'm hooked!

Great balance Ashlee player

Pros: My team has had several Rip-It bats in the bats including the Elite and the Reaper but all the others pale in comparison to the Drop Ten Air. It feels amazing when it connects with the ball, you can literally make contact anywhere on the barrel and you'll end up with a pretty nice hit, and this bat allows your hands to come through the zone really REALLY fast. All great softball players know that when it comes to your hands, speed matters. The Drop Ten Air really blew me away!

awesome sweet spot Ali player

Pros: This bat was AMAZING! I could not tell the difference from hitting the sweet spot and hitting it at the end of the bat. The grip was so good, my hands didn't slip at all! I really loved the pop this bat had and how light it felt. This bat was by far my favorite.

Would this work to my advantage for a slow pitch ASA softball league? gillymonster
No, the 2014 RIP-IT Drop Ten AIR (FP1410 Fastpitch) bat would be created for fastpitch softball leagues not slow pitch. If you used it for slow pitch you may not see the same performance as with a true slow pitch bat certified for ASA.

What changes has RIP-IT made with the newly released 2015 Drop Ten and Drop Twelve Air bats over the 2014 models? Ed
Both the 2015 Drop Ten and Drop Twelve Fastpitch models are made from RIP-IT's new R3 Composite. This new composite material is lighter and provides a more responsive barrel than the R2 Composite in this 2014 RIP-IT Drop Ten AIR Fastpitch Softball Bat (FP1410). You can check out more of the specs now by following this link: http://www.ripit.com/fastpitch-bats/.

I'm really interested in this bat but for a USSSA slow-pitch league. I realize that this bat is designed for a fast-pitch style play but I always hit better with a bat that's lighter than what's designed for slow-pitch. Is there anything that I should be aware of in using a a fastball bat for slow-pitch? adma
The 2014 RIP-IT Drop Ten AIR Fastpitch Softball Bat (FP1410) is designed mainly for fastpitch play but I have seen it used in slow pitch as well. If you are looking for a bat that is light weight then this would be a great option.
