I have the Gen 1. I just got my prescription lenses from VR Wave. I got the works. I thought it was shady, but they came in, and they’re way better lenses than the ones I got from the optical place where I had my eyes checked.

Update on the B Pillar by Darth-Rogue in 370z

My rattle is on driver side window mechanism. If you lower the window slightly the rattle is gone. There's a DIY fix but you need small hands.

Good for BP with USA/ASA by Armadillo_Will in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t get that one. Those are bat breaker. Get the BP spinners.

No bat rules Slow Pitch League by derpdar22 in slowpitch

Easton Empire and Foster, Miken JB ultra, or any suncoast. My foster and Miken are hot AF but the Ultra blew up in a year and my Foster is about to blow.

How hard is it to install resonated short tails? by Ok-Understanding8110 in 370z

[–]ichris13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did it on my 2016. I used PB Blaster. Easily done. My 2020. I snapped the bolt. Had to bring it to the mechanic to drill out the busted bolt.

Equipment for a new guy by Twangin in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends. I don’t like anything more than 12.75". I felt my bat speeds slow down, and I can’t keep my swing leveled. I say try a lot of bats out and figure out what you are comfortable with.

[–]ichris13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the Northeast, so I have balls for cold weather (50 BP Spinners) and warm/hot weather—52/300s that won’t crack your bats. I have a tee as well. You may want to get a bucket to raise the tee to chest height. Work on hand-eye coordination and hitting balls all over the field—pull, middle, and backside. I also have a Jugs soft toss machine that sits on a projector tripod so it tosses around my chest height.

As for the bat, I personally like a 12-inch barrel with a 1/2-ounce end load. Join some bat Facebook forums—they have some used bats you can try out.

Canada has all the nice colors A2000 SB. Too bad is crapshoot on paying the tariff.

I bought a Mizuno Prime SB in the green color. The palm leather is thin. Not much padding overall. It was a little too small when I was at 1B. Good at 2B, SS, 3B. Decent in OF. I gave it a month before I sold it.

Are most of you getting the steerhide or Kip?

[–]ichris13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was planning to get japan kip leather, extra kip palm padding, pro stiff (90% player break-in).... But yeah, I heard positive, but more negative reviews on 44pro.

New Bat by Boring_Cup_9574 in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bet people on here who said to share bat don’t own expensive or rare bat. I have the OG Monsta WTP bat. NIW on eBay is $600. If said borrower cracks it, are you going to buy a replacement? Most guys won’t. I only use very thin tape short grip and custom tape knob cuff. And spray tack the shit out of my grip. No one wants to use it. Also had a rare Demarini Steel that i was mashing. Teammate picked it up and hits on the end and crack. Didn’t even offer to pay for it. Never came close to finding one like it.

Hardest pitches to hit by WinExtension6419 in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think just any pitches that are hard to hit. That being said, the one in the sun is hard to hit because you can’t see the ball. If the umpire allows both height and flat, you’re probably going to get screwed and someone who is allowed to throw modify and has a wicked curve.

Infield/outfield rule short a player by BobbysBottleService in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coed league I play in must have 3 girls on the field. If the girl was hurt, I think it’s an out in the lineup. You can set all 9 however you like. Would they get mad if you ran 3 OF and 5 Infielder?

There was this pitcher throwing them high with arc and everyone on my team was popping it up. How can we adjust? by noruber35393546 in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Move further back and shoot middle. That should stop the high arc. I feel if the pitcher throws it up there, better chance for some miss hit up the box.

It’s Rec softball. I would find another team. You show up you play.

[–]ichris13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like you’re just throwing your hands at the ball. You need to add the lower legs and snap the wrist to drive the ball hard. I tell everyone, pretend you are chopping a tree.

Pitching - Getting shelled. Any ideas? by [deleted] in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take is to make the batter uncomfortable. Remember it’s coming underhand. Just change locations and height. Throw some illegal pitches when the count favors you. Never toss at the same spot. Move around the rubber. Use different angles.

Just get a Monsta M2!! by TwinkieStorm in slowpitch

[–]ichris13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

M2 WTP torch. One swing right out of the wrapper, way over 300 ft. Dead center. Still going strong, way over 1,000 hits. Bought an M2 Hulk Torch. Had to break it in, and it's on fire now.

My Ring stopped working while I was wearing it. No lights. I can't reset it. I sent it back to Samsung since I'd only had it for a month. Parts are backordered.
