The 12" barrel of this bat features a gritty, sandpaper-like finish that forces added spin on the ball and increases distance on contact with improved impact aerodynamics. The handle of this year's Super Z has been stiffened for added flex, and its end-loaded swing weight delivers the momentum you need to crush balls over the defense and bring the runs home for your team. Make every at-bat a threat to break open the game with the ASA-tuned 2016 Super Z by your side.

Bat Rolling Information
Let's unleash a bat's full potential. Our normal heat rolling treatment simulates around 350-400 hits. Our other choice is a basic heat rolling (200-300 hits). Heating the bat allows us to create a much more uniformed break-in and is overall less aggressive on the bats durability. Our professional-grade machines and unique process treat each bat between 45 minutes to 90 minutes at very slow incremental speeds. Our heat rolling process is one-of-a-kind with three different machines designs for different bat models, it has been perfected over the years and assures quality you can see & feel instantly.
- Basic Heat Rolling - (Increases performance 10% with ball exit speed ratio, expect a minimal durability loss)
- Normal Heat Rolling - (Increases performance up to 25% on composites with increases ball exit speed ratio)
Bat Shaving Information
If you are looking for ultimate performance, you have just found it. We have customized methods for each bat model to alter barrel thickness and maximize the ball exit speed ratio.
