Description

If you've ever dreamed about what it would be like to start ripping shots to all edges of the field and beyond, this is bat to own. The Mattingly Ripped youth bat is the newest addition to this classic family of high performing bats. Made from Mattingly's MB5500 Atomic Alloy, the Ripped swings light and stays tough. The MB5500 Atomic Alloy is Mattingly's high-end alloy that blends an array of elements to create one of the hottest materials in the game! The Ripped employs Mattingly's increasingly popular Direct Power Transfer which maximizes energy return to the ball, giving players a noticeably more explosive reaction on contact! The Ripped also features Mattingly's patented V-Grip handle system. Developed by Yankee great Don Mattingly, the V-Grip is specially designed to keep knocking knuckles aligned and shift the bat away from the palm and into the fingers. This forces your grip to be in perfect alignment every time! Additionally, the V-Grip keeps the bat from turning in the hands during the swing, giving players maximum control. In recent field tests, the V-Grip was shown to increase bat speed, power and ball flight distance by an average of 7%! Swing speed is also enhanced by the TRU Balance Weighting System which ensures a perfect weight distribution from top to bottom. Mattingly: Be a Game Changer! The Ripped is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

Pros: Extremely light, great bat speed. LOVE the v-grip.

Cons: None so far... have used it in the cage for a few hundred cuts and is holding up pretty well. Can't give it a 5 until we're into the season.

Pros: like the grip of the bat, thats about it.

Cons: i purchased this bat for my 10 yr old son who plays travel ball. very unhappy with this bat, it has no pop, the sweet spot is very small and it sounds cracked everytime my son hit the ball. have always used Easton or Demarini and will stick with them.

Pros: V-Grip. Awesome for 10 year old players. Make good contact and the ball is gone.

Cons: Barrel is too short, the sweet spot is small, and there is lots of sting.

Pros: My son loves the Mattingly V-Grip and has used said bats for the last 3 years in Little League. Good sized sweet spot, nice balance, great feel. Too bad the company no longer exists at this point.

Cons: Flattened out the sweet spot after a line drive double and home run against good velocity pitching this year. Bat had to be replaced because of this. No more company, no more warranty. Only happened to this years bat, the other two were undamaged through the course of the seasons they were in use.

Ok bat Slugger252729 player

Pros: This bat is very light. Gets the bat quickly through the zone. Always gets a base hit. Like the V-Grip

Cons: All of the base hits are little bloops over an infeilder's head. Bat has lots of sting. Also, it cracked after the 1st game.
