DO NOT BUY Jennifer parent

Pros: This bat looks good and the description really hypes it up, but that is all it has going for it.

Cons: I bought this bat for an 8 year old. It cracked after 3 practices. Got a replacement from Rip-It. It cracked after 2 practices in the same spot. Waiting to get my money back right now. If it won't hold up to an 8 year old in practice it will never hold up for anyone else. This bat was used under normal circumstances with normal balls.

Large sweet spot Shea Terranova player

Pros: This bat caught my eye. When I tried it out, the ball came off the bat nicely and I couldn't tell when I was hitting off the end of it. The sweet spot seems to be large, which makes hitting nice. The grip is comfortable, and feels good.

AMAZING jasmin player

Pros: Looking for a new bat I picked up a size 33 drop 12 Rip-It bat. First swing I took the very first words that came out of my mouth were "Oh my God!" This bat felt so light I feel like I can face any pitcher. Words can not describe how AMAZING this bat was. Even with having a blister on my hand I felt like I had power and not worrying about it.

The first one broke on the 3rd hit at the first practice....... thought ok maybe a fluke?? Sent it off got the replacement it lasted halfway through the first practice!! The POP wasn't that great and she said it really vibrated her hands.... Don't waste your time or money!!!!!

Is this bat approved for Little League play? question

The 2014 RIP-IT Drop Twelve AIR: F1412 Fastpitch is approved in Little League fastpitch softball.

Kara

It doesn't say it is approved for ISA on the bat but in the product features it says it is. I just wanted clarification. Bwhary

If you look closely on the barrel of the 2014 RIP-IT Drop Twelve AIR (F1412), it does say ISA Certified. This label is in small print in the blue area where "DROP TWELVE AIR" is printed.
