How it Works

Analyze

No two bats are the same. Our lab uses the most precise system in the world to quantify bat-to-bat variations in your identically labeled bats.

Optimize

Performance testing with you in the cage reveals which EXACT bat parameters produce the highest exit velocity for your swing. Your data determines your optimal bat parameters (within the turning model you are already using).

Boost

You get an exit velocity boost by only swinging your highest performing bats and LongBall Labs works with the factory to fine-tune all future shipments to your exact optimal parameters.

The Formula

Discover an inefficiency: NO TWO BATS ARE THE SAME

Identically labeled bats do not perform the same because no two pieces of wood are the same. The discrepancy ranges from 8-18ft of batted ball distance in one shipment of bats and even more when you compare shipments over the course of a season.

 

Quantify the Findings: The RIPz® Metric

We built our own high precision bat analysis laboratory that can detect these tiny discrepancies from bat-to-bat. We then conducted performance testing with dozens of MLB hitters to prove that our proprietary RIPz® metric accurately quantifies the performance potential of individual bats.

Convert it to a Performance Advantage: Identify the Gamers

Armed with the exact RIPz® score for each of your bats, finding your absolute optimal bat becomes simple. Anytime you get new bats, LongBall Labs analyzes them and provides the RIPz® score for each bat so you know EXACTLY what you are swinging.
