Clear the bases with DeMarini Lotus (-9), an innovative fastpitch softball bat with a new integrated handle taper and balanced yet powerful gapped double wall composite barrel design to deliver consistent performance, comfort and sound. Lotus (-9) leverages a Dark Matter Composite barrel with a gapped wall construction to optimize the sweet spot and create a loud sound on contact. Lotus’ two-piece composite construction is ultra-balanced for complete control to barrel up more pitches. Engineered to minimize hand sting, Lotus (-9) uses a Damplify Direct Connection, integrated handle taper and Damplify Knob with softer materials to absorb vibration – maximizing player comfort to do damage at the plate.
