bbcor bat question?

Do yourself a favor and go with one of the big, known brand-named bats. The BBCOR suck bad enough to begin with.

No clue on baseball bats, but I'll chime in on the Ripit brand itself. There is a guy on the softball team I've played on the past few years that bought a Ripit bat 3 years ago. The bat just really got broken in last fall, and that's with a handful of guys using it every game for fall and spring ball. Again no clue how that a) translates to baseball bats and B) what their new equipment is like; but I know when he bought it he researched and read some of the same stuff at the time about it(number 1 bat, etc).

We had a Ripit Reaper and broke it in one week of BP and a tourney. Buy an Easton Power Brigade in the weight/swing balance your son likes and be done. I swing Worth exclusively in softball, but the power brigade is the bat to swing in baseball this year.

Have they improved the durability? I ask because we had one last year for softball and it cracked in 32 hits, indoors, with Evil BP balls made specifically to not hurt your bat. It was ridiculously hot, but lasted about 15 minutes.
