    Back in November when it was first released, my travel ball organization had a rawlings equipment day. I got the chance to swing the icon that day. I knew that it was hot, but I didn't enjoy swinging it because of the thin and slick grip. Never knew it was this good though.

  • @christianrestori1731

    My college team is sponsored by Rawlings and we have some icons and some little dudes have hit some absolute shots with em. Only issue with the bat is there is only one left on our team that still has the end cap attached, all the other ones have popped off. The one that still has an end cap is cracked on the barrel toward the connection piece too. Pretty frustrating for anyone who will be buying w their own money but if you somehow have the chance to swing this bat for free then absolutely do.

    Bought the ICON for my son and he has the Voodoo one as well. He now prefers the ICON over the Voodoo. ICON actually feels a lot like the Voodoo in swing weight. Probably should be more like 7 instead of a 5 on the swing weight chart. ICON is legit though.

      Regardless, they took unrestricted bats and usssa drop 5s to the HR record attempt and didn’t really get close. A BBCOR ain’t gonna do it. They are restricted. 110 is nowhere close to fast enough for the HR record, you need 130+ because the record is probably fake.

    This bat should have gotten a 26 on the bat bro scale. I understand that you don't want to boost a $500 bat into the stratosphere, but from all the evidence you have collected, this bat is in a class of its own. Your score should reflect that. In your glo-stick v icon video, you said the swing weight of the icon was "nearly identical" to the glostick (2:10 mark), which you rated a 6 in your '22 quatro v glowstick video (10:05 mark). And I don't see a reason why the icon shouldn't be a 10 sweet spot. If anything, you got better hits off the hands with the icon rather than the goods. So 10 power, 10 sweet spot, 6 swing weight. I think you need to do one last head-to-head with the icon. Do select pwr/bonesaber hybrid to suss out a 9 vs 10 on sweet spot, and some 4/5/6 bats on swing weight.

    Word of wisdom on Lizard Skins for all the people out there. 0.5mm is meant almost exclusively for wood bats. 1.1 mm is the standard thickness of most factory grips, and is the most popular size of Lizard Skins. 1.8mm is meant for the younger kids, as it obviously has the most padding. Regardless of thickness, ALWAYS remove your existing grip, never use it as an over grip. This ain’t tennis.

    2. Rawlings is exploiting loopholes in the bbcor test
