Description

Specially designed for players in single wall alloy leagues, RIP-IT guarantees that the Reaper is the best alloy ASA bat on the market today! The Reaper employs RIP-IT's popular Beyond Composite Technology (BCT) that feels and sounds like composite, but is guaranteed to outperform composite bats by 3%! The BCT system uses Advanced Tempered Ballistic Alloy in a bonded-layer system where layers are chemically fused together to create unparalleled strength and durability. BCT does not require players to break in their bat so you can be sure that the Reaper will be smokin' hot right out of the wrapper! The Reaper features a one-piece design with a slight endload to give the hitter a little extra behind every swing, resulting in increased power and performance. With a vibration dampening memory foam grip, swinging the Reaper feels as good as it performs. The end result is an ASA bat with more POP and longer life than any composite bat on the market. When performance matters, just RIP-IT! The Reaper REAP8 is approved for play in ASA, USSSA, ISA, NSA, and Single Wall Alloy Leagues. The Reaper comes with a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty and a 30 Day "Love It or Return It" Performance Guarantee through RIP-IT. Free Shipping!
