Big hair and big bats all in one thread.

Can it get any better than that!

Ryan from West Coast Sporting Goods here. We got the Techzilla FP t in our shop on Tuesday. The bat is a monster. Arguably the best -10 bat on the market. It's everything you would expect from Anderson and more. The Techzilla swings and feels lighter than the rockettech. It has a slightly end loaded feel but overall it's a much more balanced bat. The end cap, handle and grip are the same. The bat is double walled as most of you already know. Anderson used the same power arch technology on the Techzilla as they do with the Rockettech. The bat looks like a single wall bat with no external shell. We've been patiently waiting on the techzilla fp. The bat is going to make some major waves in the FP community this year. With all the changes going on with ASA and the composite bats there will not be any -10 balanced bats that will touch the Techzilla. This is my first post on here. Hope this helps. I will check back in later.

Not to beat dead horse......but this bat has to be a beast, because cosmetically it is a train wreck (Spaz feel free to insert photo here). Hey Art....any plans to introduce your new puke green TechZilla unis in Fresno? Can't wait....

Ugh... As in Ugly... I can see where you could get away with this scheme in the baseball version, but for fastpitch, where style and looks seem to be a part of the game with the girls, the puke green and lizard on a bat may not fly...

Just bought the 2008 RT 2 months ago as DD needed a replacement for her -10 Synergy. I pulled up photos of the Synergy, Stealth, Phenix, Mayhem, RT, Rip It Elite, and the TechZilla and put them side by side... Guess which one was picked last by almost every girl on the team???

Now performance will influence many girls, but the scheme is still hard to get by. I guess we will play the season with the RT and see just how good the TechZilla fairs. Maybe for next season Anderson gets hip to the fastpitch girls using the bat and it gets a less hideous look.

Hey Ryan, with the composite bats still being able to be used in their current form, how does the TechZilla compare to the current models such as the Stealth, Synergy, Phenix, etc...? With the composite restrictions looming, I am sure the TZ will outperform the furture comp bats, but how does it fair right now?
