Best Youth Bat on the Market Pop parent
Pros: Ball jumps off the bat. Zero break-in period because it's alloy. Heaviest of the 2 1/4 barrel little league bats on the market and I think it's important for kids to swing the heaviest bat they can handle.
Cons: As with any 1 piece bat, there will be vibrations if you hit the ball off the end or if you get jammed. Too new to tell about durability. I wish this came in big barrel!
Great bat Andrew player
Pros: This bat has so much pop. I was hitting home runs barely over the fence with my other bat, but my first bp I was hitting 50+ feet farther! Great bat overall.
Cons: Save your receipt. This bat dented with about30 days left on the warranty. I got a new one and it was fine
This bat is cheaper and better than the mako colin player
Pros: i own the mako and its the best bats ive ever owned but i used my teamates techzilla and its honestly better! the ball flys off the bat and i hit my first two homeruns with this bat the first time i used it! theres actually no sting even though its a one piece alloy. this is my favorite bat ever. you will see a huge difference in your hitting if you get this bat. every ball you hit is a solid, hard hit. even the grounders are hard to field because the will come off the bat so quickly. the whole barrel is a sweetspot and this bat has an amazing sound too it. my teamates didnt think it looked good but first hit with it, they were blown away because the ball went over the fence and then another 30 feet. the endcap is also very cool because its clear. you have to try this bat.
Cons: the grip isnt very good and the knob is small. this bat also dents but its so goooood
eh ss player
Pros: pretty good amount of jump off the bat for all alloy, similar to xl3 but much less durable
Cons: I really thing they should stop making this bat...... it has no durability at all and it dents extremely fast
Very Good Bat Cole Thompson player
Pros: This bat has tons of pop and the ball just jumps off the bat. I hit my first homer with this bat. The durability is great. I have had it for the whole season and it hasn't dented yet.
Cons: The bat is pretty end heavy, and it takes a while to get used to it, but once u can swing the bat fast enough, the ball just flies.
Best Bat to Own BStrm Player player
Pros: -Double wall technology which increases power -Huge sweet spot -Great travel team bat -Helps advance to heavier bat with the drop 9 weight
Cons: Absolutely none
good pop, redskins coach coach
Pros: for the price the bat has a lot of pop and kids on team love it (hits just about the same as the mako for 1/2 the cost but is a little end heavy for some of the smaller 11 12's on the team.
Cons: little heavy for some kids
Big Boy Bat jc player
Pros: The bat is more end loaded than the usual youth bats. This is a positive for stronger players. In addition, good for 12 year olds ,whom are also playing middle school ( swinging a -3 ) but also still playing little league/cal ripken and forced to use a 2 1/4 bat. This is a good option.
Cons: Handle is on the thinner side
Solid bat for the price Scott parent
Pros: My son is 13 yrs. old, 150 lbs. and was in need of a heavier bat. The Techzilla fit his need for the price we wanted to meet. Ball pops very well of the sweet spot. He has been using this bat exclusively for over a month and no durability issues. Paint still looks good and no dents.
Cons: As expected if you miss the sweet spot you will get handle vibration.
Excellent Bat JE (proud Dad) parent
Pros: Bought this bat for my 12 year old son who was an average hitter with his old De Marini Black Coyote bat.He would hit mostly grounders and very few balls to shallow outfield.Now most of his hits are to the outfield down to the warning track.I'm so impressed by the amount of pop the ball has coming off this bat.He hasn't hit a homerun yet but I'm sure he will soon.
Cons: Should have done my research earlier so that my son would have earlier success in hitting.
Amazing bat for the price. John E. parent
Pros: Bought the Techzilla 32in 23ounce bat for my 12 year old son who is an average hitter with his Demarini Black coyote.He mostly hit alot of grounders and a few shallow outfield flyballs.Now with this bat his flyballs travel as far as the warning track!!!I couldn't believe how much pop the ball flies off this bat.This bat turns an average hitter to a longball slugger.
Cons: I should've done my research sooner so my son would've have hitting success sooner.

About the Brand
A High-Tech Engineer, a Sales Manager for a chemical company, and a Professional Yacht Racer with a background in mechanical engineering are not likely to have much in common. But they did, and still do. You guessed it…SOFTBALL.
Our passion for “Diamond” sports goes back many years, but it was about 10 years ago that we started manufacturing and private labeling our bats for other companies. In 1999, Steven Anderson designed a new multi-wall high-performance bat that featured our patented “Power Arch” technology. After thorough testing, it was ready for the company that we designed it for, but they were going through a transition period and were not ready to move on it.
Here was the bummer, our team was counting on using these bats in a big tournament that was just a month away and we could not put their graphics on the bats until the deal between the two of us was inked.
Steven offered a solution … they are already certified by the governing bodies so why don’t we put our own graphics on them and use them in the tourney. What a great idea and that is exactly what we did.
I was driving to the plant the next morning wearing my championship “T” shirt and had no idea that when I arrived at 6:30 am that the message machine would be filled and the phones would be ringing. The messages and the calls were all basically the same … “How do I get my hands on one of those new Anderson Techwraps”?
That is how it started, and since then we have released the FlexTech, FastTech, RocketTech, TechZilla, Pyrotech, and we are not done.
Let me tell you a little secret……THE BEST IS YET TO COME…GO DEEP, GO VERY VERY DEEP
