Durable bamboo in 27, 30, and 33 inch lengths, lightweight and easy to swing. ProNine recommends foam, wiffle, or tennis balls. Sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Flat Side Never Lies\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA round barrel disguises a slightly rolled wrist or dropped hands; a flat one cannot. ProNine designs the Flat bat to maintain a level swing and keep the barrel in the hitting zone longer, and the angle of the flat face gives the player information to make swing adjustments between reps, without a coach saying a word. It also sharpens bat head accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLight, Simple, Constant\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is lightweight and easy to swing, the Flat bat suits high-repetition rounds and young players. It is a mechanics tool, not a strength tool: pair it with soft practice balls and let the feedback do the coaching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGraduate contact quality with the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/pronine-sweet-spot-training-bat\"\u003eSweet Spot bat\u003c\/a\u003e, then the thin-barrel \u003ca href=\"\/products\/pronine-hit-stick-hec-training-bat\"\u003eHit Stick\u003c\/a\u003e.
