You only hit about 4 balls with the Lekka simmy lol. It didn't sound the best to be honest but it does need a lot of knocking in yet. I don't know about your blue room mate it looked like it went well and sounded lovely but mine felt awesome. No vibration whatsoever and it absolutely flew out of the meat. A little harder than what I've had before but that didn't bother me after id started to find the middle regularly. And it Didnt take long as the hitting area is pretty big for a more traditionally profiled bat
