One of the Anderson baseball bats features something this year that they never did before...composite material. Formerly a producer of all aluminum alloy models, this year Anderson has introduced a hybrid model into their lineup with, of course, several other all aluminum models.
Since Rip-It and their baseball bats are fairly new to the game, they do not have mega bucks invested in composite bat technology which has worked out to their advantage. So when the BBCOR standard came out Rip-It ditched their BESR design from last year and designed their BBCOR model from the ground up. It seems to be catching on and these bats are getting pretty good reviews.
Like other manufacturers, the Combat baseball bats of 2012 aren't going to perform like their models from years past, (due to BBCOR standards), but I'm sure that their lineup this year will not disappoint. A couple years ago, Combat was the company that burst onto the youth baseball scene and put composite bats on the map.
The TPX baseball bats of 2012 are pretty similar to last year's models with the exception of a couple new additions...the Vertex, Triton II, and the Armor. The staples of lineup still include the Exogrid 2, Z-1000, Omaha, Catalyst, and Warrior.
