**If you're ordering a shaved rolled & polymer bat we will NOT shave the bat until we speak with you to go over the shaving specs as we DO NOT believe in levels of shaving, we custom shave every bat to the players specs**  we will call you after the order is placed**

Example: If you and Aaron Judge order the same level will you two hit the same? NO, thats why i call every customer to discuss every players skill, & talent levels to ensure we shave every bat to meet that players specific personalized shaving specs!! If you don't get a call from the bat shaver how do they know how aggressive to shave the bat without knowing if the user is a first time player, a top athlete or a potential MLB prospect, or little Johnny or little Suzy that hates it and sucks but dad thinks he or she is the next 1st round pick or maybe its a bat that needs to only hit 100 balls to go 600ft to impress coaches at a showcase. What ever the purpose is we make sure is tailored shaved for the players needs and wants!!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

The 2026 Short Porch Blackout X USA 13” End Loaded Slowpitch Softball Bat is built for hitters who want a long barrel, aggressive end-loaded feel, and a soft barrel profile designed to punish mistakes. With its 13” Spin Tech Barrel, two-piece construction, and .5 oz end load, the Blackout X brings together barrel coverage, responsiveness, and power in a USA-certified build.

The 13” soft barrel design gives hitters an extended hitting surface with a responsive feel through contact. Short Porch’s Spin Tech Barrel adds a performance-focused surface designed for hitters who like to attack the ball and create serious barrel action.

An 800 PSI Non-Linear Exemption allows the Blackout X to utilize a softer barrel profile, creating a more responsive feel while maintaining the performance characteristics power hitters demand. Paired with advanced Aramid construction, the barrel is built to deliver the strength, durability, and explosive response serious slowpitch players expect.

The two-piece construction creates a smoother feel through contact while helping reduce unwanted vibration in the hands. A .5 oz end load adds mass toward the barrel for increased momentum through the hitting zone without making the bat unnecessarily difficult to control.

Welcome to the dark side of performance. Built for the big swing. Engineered for the blackout.
