It has a completely different barrel technology.Idk y anyone would consider it anything other than a flipper with a different endcap, loading and whatever other lil twist they put on it js
Thats what all manufacturers say when they break out the (latest greatest)It has a completely different barrel technology.
It features the continuous fiber technology (Nautalai) barrel. Considering that barrel technology has only been around since late last year, I would say it's not the same as the Flipper which has been around since fall 2012.Thats what all manufacturers say when they break out the (latest greatest)
If it has divergence technology it is a flip too me js..all that other continuous fiber stuff doesn't change the fact that is is divergence tech.. all I've been reading about all these new fiber and what not seem to have one thing in common, lack of durabilityIt features the continuous fiber technology (Nautalai) barrel.

Wasn’t Combat advertised to have continuous fiber tech too? Like half a decade ago?It features the continuous fiber technology (Nautalai) barrel.

I ordered this bat today simply because I love the name of it. Anyone else here a fan of The Big Lebowski?
I was able to swing my Nihilist for the first time Monday. Took about 50 swings off of a tee hitting Tattoo NX3 bp balls (Yellow/Blue). I have a 27oz, feels slightly end loaded. Has a very loud cracking sound on contact from swing one, very smooth through the zone, and the sweet spot is large running up and down the barrel similar to how the Nautalai is. I purposely miss hit a couple balls just to gauge the feeling and they still felt pretty good with decent exit speed. I have a '19 Flipper OG and A3 RD28 in the same weight and this bat seems to perform better out of wrapper in comparison to the other two from what I can remember. The sound is like no Flipper I have swung and I feel that the bat is more forgiving. I would definitely recommend it or at the very least wait until December when both mainline release.

$349 @ 50 swings = $7 per swing if it lasts that long. 1 happy customer = priceless I guess
Even members price is meh for a mainline.. i will wait till spring unless something comes up reasonably priced349 who pays that lol

My thoughts as well, if these perform better outa wrap it will be marginal.. my concerns are durability, i sure hope D didn't sacrfice that jsEven with the member pricing I'd rather go with an 18 USAM for $169 NIW on another site. Even if the new bat performs better it's marginal I bet.
