Description

The patented Advanced Skills Tee is unlike any other baseball swing trainer available. Designed to help experienced players perfect their batting skills and help beginning players to learn proper mechanics. The forward arm and outside swing barrier simultaneously eliminate both "dipping" and "casting" problems. And, the height adjustable, movable arm positions the ball anywhere across the strike zone to realistically represent inside and outside pitch locations. Use the Advanced Skills Batting Tee to build a compact swing, keep your "hands inside the ball" and develop a "quick" bat. Use it to increase bat speed and learn to "hit the ball where it's pitched".

Includes a two-year warranty!

Why The Forward Arm?

In fact, the question should be "Why not a forward arm?". You don't hit the ball over the center of the plate (as traditional batting tees suggest). You make contact in front of the plate. But there are two other equally important reasons to use a forward arm design:

1. The forward arm eliminates "dipping" or dropping the hands and trailing shoulder to lift the ball with a "looping" type swing. If you "dip" with the Advanced Skills Tee, you hit the back of the arm. It forces you to take the bat straight down to the ball, leveling the swing at the point of contact.

2. The forward arm also pivots and rotates to place the ball on the inside or outside of the strike zone. Then, the arm points in the direction to drive the ball based on pitch location (i.e. pull the inside pitch, go with the outside pitch to the opposite field . . . "Hit the ball where it's pitched").

The Outside Barrier

The outside barrier eliminates "casting". It keeps you from swinging "long" and helps you "keep your hands inside the ball". If the bat or arms are extended prematurely the bat head will slap the flexible upright barrier post. For years coaches have set a tee adjacent to a fence or screen to force hitters to compact their swing. The outside barrier does the same thing except it is a lot more effective. It rotates around the tee to accommodate LH or RH hitters and it moves along with the forward arm to help you keep the hands "tight" when you are working on inside and outside pitch locations. With the outside barrier you are forced to rotate the hips and torso and extend the hands only at the point of contact. It produces a "quick" bat and more power too.

Quality Construction

The tubing for the Advanced Skills Tee is molded from polyurethane using an open casting process. What is polyurethane? It's a flexible material like rubber; however, polyurethane is much stronger and more durable than rubber, as much as 10 times more durable. Wheels for roller blades, industrial rollers and dimpled pitching machine balls are among the many items typically made with urethane. It's a great material for products that must withstand impact and stress yet remain flexible. Urethanes are expensive and the Advanced Skills Tee cost more than a rubber tee but, it will last 10 times longer too.

Custom Cup Brush/Ball Holder

The Advanced Skills Tee also uses a replaceable, custom cup brush as a ball holder. The brush, which works equally well for baseballs, softballs or poly-balls, is also more than 10 times more durable than rubber, tube-type ball holders. And, the brush gives you a clean "swish" through the ball with no shock to the bat or hands.

The Advanced Skills Tee can be quickly assembled or disassembled by hand for easy storage and transportation. It uses a hollow, canteen style base that is filled with sand or water and sealed with a rubber plug. When filled, the base provides weight for stability and when empty, the base is light and portable.
