^ I have a Warner, never bought a 50+. :)

XP has a very thin handle, same as Warner. I have to check the handle under the grip, still admiring the "new ness" of the XP. :D

I'm sorry, I thought you had that.

I look forward in hearing how it plays, especially in the lower half of the bat.

They play really well. Due to the height of the spine, the middle is really long, and lots of fun! So much fun in fact, they really should be illegal. Oh. Hang on a minute.

Even lower down the face, you are still getting good rebound.

I don't know. I've never looked, and obviously, I can't tell the difference, because nothing made me check!

For a 2-10 bat, it picks up like a toothpick! I am going to beef it up with oil, anti-scuff sheet, and a second grip which will bring the weight close to 2-12.

Have you done anything to protect the toe of your XP80 @tim2000s ? I don't know if it's just because the spine is so big but it feels tiny!

Have used an xp80 for over 6 months now   lots of yorkers  no splits or any issues  lots of hours knocking it in    they have a soft face & toe  compress really evenly     timing hits the ball further than bat speed with these beauties

No, but I grew up when bats weren't massive like some we see now. These bats have toes that are no thinner than normal bats were in the eighties and nineties, so I have no worries about the toe.
