Has this been announced or posted yet. We are still waiting for approval since this bat does not pass the field compression test.
had one tested last week niw and it didnt pass.

It does however pass the 98mph test. Heard compression testing is not mandatory so people putting a lot of stock in it shouldn't
Yeah but all our states and nationals compression test...
Exactly...It does however pass the 98mph test. Heard compression testing is not mandatory so people putting a lot of stock in it shouldn't
Exactly...
It will pass the ASA test, but will not pass a compression test due to the design of the bat... That is why they dont have the utrip stamp on them...
Wrong...the bat is made from the new standard. Unless they have the new tester it will fail. Only Asa has this. No utrip, no NSA, isf or any field testers. Once everyone gets the new testing equipment then it will pass testing. The only reason it does not have a utrip stamp is because they can't properly test it yet. The flipper is not hotter than utrip bats but does hit the 52/300 well.
Sooooo... what you're telling me is there is no letter?
Oh there is a letter, I saw it, Hedge showed it to me
Dammit. Hedge never shows me anything. Any chance he could white-out "Flipper" and put "Combatant"? I'd like to swing my Combatant in fall ball.
what good is a bat that doesn't pass compression if it's not any hotter than the ones that do?
and yeah, i'm just stirring the pot... already hating the hype on this bat.

All due respect, but I'm going to side with newbill on this one. Sorry joeschmoe.
This bat has me wanting to get one of the new ASA Eastons to swing in everything. If it almost hits the 52s as well as the Flipper does I'd be set for all associations.
Do the ASA Eastons get a letter?
I wish I had the flipper to compare, because I've swung the new eastons and the z2000.All due respect, but I'm going to side with newbill on this one. Sorry joeschmoe.
