If you can use a u-trip style bat surely stay away from the Freak DST, I had one and sent it back for performance reasons and they sent me a MV3 in a smookin 10 days from the time I shipped it back. So there was something wrong with my DST. I have a MV3 and a DC Psycho, hard choice between the two. Get one as a return and then save for the other one and buy it straight out. My MV1 failed on me so I sent it back to meet its maker and I returned it for another MV3. The only reason is you only get one return and my DC has a receipt. If it falls down on me I will with out a doubt get another DC in return. Its a real hard choice there all bad ass bats.
