What's Your Bat Speed? A 1 mph increase in swing speed equates to 7ft in added distance! The Newest product from 3D4LIFE is a patented, lightweight ring that slips on your bat: The XLR8 Speed Ring Verbally "ANNOUNCES" THE SPEED OF EVERY SWING! All you have to do is turn it on...slip it on your bat... swing it ... and listen for your bat speed! 3D4LIFE has had the technology to determine bat speed for 8 years, originally a digital readout. We simply chose not to introduce it. Why? Pretty simple really... We design products that instill THE PROPER MUSCLE MEMORY in athletes that use our training devices. Our studies showed very early on that no matter the talent level of the hitter (Little League to Professional) using our digital speed read out version... the hitter RARELY FINISHED HIS SWING. This was because they were so pre-occupied with finding out how fast they just swung their bat... They stopped short and looked at the digital read out! Folks... that's not a good thing. As Pioneers of this technology we really wanted to get it right. So, we went back to the drawing board and developed the VOICE SYSTEM for the XLR8 Speed Ring! Wow... what a difference! Perfect swings that got faster and faster! Now, all you have to do is turn it on... swing it ... and listen for your bat speed to be announced! Plus, we included 10 professional tips in the software to randomly play and help you develop the perfect swing! Paying attention to the tips will definitely help you increase your bat speed! FUN EXERCISES! One of the greatest benefits of the XLR8 Speed Ring is the fact that it allows you to challenge a friend or family member to see who can swing the bat the fastest. A simple challenge would be to allow each player 3 swings and see who records the fastest swing. The more you pay attention to the tips provided, the faster your swings will get. If there is a disparity in the sizes of the players, such as one player is 14-15 years old and another player is only 12. It would only be fair to have the older player swing his own game bat with the XLR8 Speed Ring attached. Swinging the younger player's bat would be fine for warming up or testing your maximum swing speed. But... if you are competing, try to keep the contest as fair as possible. Ideally, the XLR8 Speed Ring is not merely a fun toy... It is a bona fide training tool! Cared for properly, The XLR8 Speed Ring will provide you years of feedback about the progress of your swing. If you are involved in a training program that is designed to increase your bat speed (such as the XLR8 Speed Bat Hitting System or the Grad-U-Weighted bats system), it would be wise to find your highest bat speed and log it along with the date. Revisit the XLR8 Speed Ring about once a week to register any gains in speed. This type of feedback is invaluable to any serious player striving to reach the next highest level in baseball. Not to mention that this log would be something fun to look back on when you reach the Major Leagues! Look for other XLR8 training products from 3D4LIFE. XLR8 Your Game!! Limited Availability!!! Remember, increasing your bat speed by merely 1mph can make a big difference in your performance! What's Your Bat Speed?
