what has been the compression testing on this thing after X amount of swings? Want to know when to take it out of the BP rotatio. I have an ASP LBE and it tested at 300 over the weekend with over 150 swings lol
I don't think it will last 1,000+ cuts, but it should be almost as hot with a lot less swings
Idk if you are talking about an Easton or a Boombah, but both are stiff and will take a lot longer to open up compared to any Miken
My first Freak30 was absolute fire after about 80 swings in the cage. I would say at that point it was under 240 for sure, probably closer to 225 would have been my guess. It developed a paint crack quickly so I sent it in to get another with return. I have about ~50 bp swings on my 25oz F30, once I do another bp session I will try to get it tested and post here.

Cannon for a right arm
just took mine out of wrapper tues night, im never one to hype a bat...but this thing is stuuuupid hot! If you can get use to the smaller barrel it rewards you. I cant imagine if this things last 1K+ swings
As you know, history says hotter out of the wrapper means shorter life span

If its that good out of the wrapper , I hope you get half as many swings out of the F30 before she fails compression or just blows up.
I have a Freak 12 with at least 1000+ cuts and its every inch as good as everyone is saying. Took the wrapper of the Freak 30 today and while it was sort of stiff it was decent but not elite just yet.
In a few hundred cuts I'm sure it will open up and launch rockets all over the field.

Anyone have a scale weight on a 25oz F30?
~25.2oz with one piece of tape and a knob cuff

Thank you sir. I was hoping they ran close to 25, and not like 25.8 or barely under 26.

F30 swings alittle light so i would say stay the same as the kirby.

I have both coming Thursday ( Elite and F30 ) can't wait to go BP and try them out head to head!!!
I think you'll really enjoy when the fulk turns the corner, as much as you like the juggies, just like I did......mine turned did around 250ish swings. Sooooooo much fun to swing right now. I know I should stop, and put it away till league starts in 3 weeks, but I just can't. It seems to come out of the bag every BP session for a little bit
Put 75 .52's on it at lunch......I think I'm in for a treat if it breaks in like I think it will.
Was hitting off a tee with a slight wind blowing in. Squeezed a few out. Still got that "ping/thud" sound, so it needs some more work.......I never put any out with the Fulk till the ping was gone.....what have I done...
Slightly less EL than the Fulk, swings VERY smooth. I can't wait to get some live pitching in.......

Im putting down my f30 for my last game of the season to swing a 2015 future. I like how contact feels on the future. I need to do a bbs test off a tee to see which ones truly hotter but i still think the f30 is ahead.
I think i get bored of swinging the same bat all season.
