NanoTech vs Demarini CF4? Thoughts? or too early to tell?

I can't really comment on this. I know what my testing results were but we don't publish comparative data whether or not it's better or worse. Maybe someone else can speak to their experience

Not sure about the CF4 but the from what I understand they are about the same as CF3. Nano vs. CF3......Nano wins hands down. I am not sure about the size up thing tho. I am kinda on the fence about moving up one size from the RT and TZ. 31" to 32". We will see today!! First game since the broken wrist and new bat!! fingers crossed!!

My 11 year old daughter is in the market for a new bat. She has been swinging the Techzilla FP 30/20 for the last year and half. It was a lot of bat at first and took about 2 months for her to get the right swing mechanics with the heavier bat even with the handle balancing. But with a recent growth spurt she wants a 32 inch something. She wants another Techzilla, but I am not sure she has the musculature to swing the bat at 32 inches. I have my eye on the Nanotech and the new KFP, both single-wall bats. How does the performance of the single-wall compare to the multi-wall technology. And we need to make sure there is no aluminum "ping" sound as she has become quite the "ping" snob lately.

Has anyone used the new KFP? We have not dealers locally where we can demop the product, sow e are kinda in the dark on this.

The new Easton Stealth Speed is also in the mix as that seems to be the popular bat of choice around here.

Don't worry about an Anderson bat pinging. That doesn't happen.

The NanoTek is not just another single wall bat. In terms of performance, a singlewall is good; A doublewall is better and a Nanotek with LaunchPad technology is best.

Because of the MOI optimization inherent in the NanoTek design, if your daughter could swing a TFP 31, she will be able to hit a NFP 32. And the NanoTek FP 32 will improve her game.

Thanks for the reply Tumblebug. So when you write that the nanotech is a "true" -10 bat, does that mean the handle-weighting (if that is the right term) is not present in this design?

How does the new KFP meaure up to the Nanotech? It does not appear the KFP has the launchpad technology. Is the KFP the replacement for the Pyrotech?
