Its continuous composite construction delivers direct feedback and consistent energy transfer from the handle through the barrel.\n\nX1B Barrel Technology uses a high-flex composite layup to produce deep compression and pronounced trampoline response at contact. The optimized flex gradient creates a wider responsive hitting surface, helping generate consistent pop while maintaining a soft, low-vibration feel.\n\nModulated Stiffness Technology fine-tunes the flex and stiffness throughout the bat for better control, feel, and energy transfer. With game-ready performance from the first swing and a loaded profile suited to a wide range of hitters, the Gridlock is ready to perform without an extended break-in period.\n\nProduct Features:\n\n• 12.75 Inch Barrel Length \n\n• 2 1\/4 Inch Barrel Diameter\n\n• Endload Swing Weighting \n\n• 1-Piece Composite Slowpitch Softball Bat\n\n• X1B Barrel Technology: High-flex composite construction engineered for feel, forgiveness, and deep trampoline response.\n\n• Modulated Stiffness Technology: Fine-tunes barrel and handle flex to improve energy transfer, control, and feel.\n\n• High-Flex Composite Layup: Creates deep barrel compression and pronounced rebound with a soft, low-vibration response.\n\n• Single-Piece Composite Architecture: Uses a continuous layup from knob to end cap for consistent stiffness and direct energy transfer.\n\n• Optimized Flex Gradient: Transitions from firmer zones near the taper and end cap to high-flex zones around the sweet spot.\n\n• Hot Out of the Wrapper: Rapid-breaking fiber and resin construction delivers game-ready performance without an extended break-in period.\n\n• Expanded Sweet Spot: Creates consistent pop across a wider portion of the barrel, including off-center contact.\n\n• Traditional One-Piece Feedback: Provides immediate feedback and direct force return on squared-up contact.\n\n• Long-Lasting Pop: Advanced fiber and resin systems are designed to extend usable barrel life while maintaining performance.\n\n• Weight Notice: Grip weight and manufacturing tolerances may cause slight variation from the listed weight.\n\nFAQ\n\nWho is the Marucci Gridlock USSSA bat best for?\n\nIt is built for slowpitch hitters who want a traditional one-piece feel, forgiving barrel response, and slightly endloaded swing.\n\nIs this Gridlock bat balanced or endloaded?\n\nIt has a loaded swing weight with a slightly endloaded feel that works for a wide range of hitters.\n\nWhat does X1B Barrel Technology do?\n\nX1B Barrel Technology uses a high-flex composite layup to create deep compression, strong trampoline response, and a softer feel at contact.\n\nDoes this bat require a break-in period?\n\nIt is designed to deliver game-ready performance from the first swing without an extended break-in period.\n\nWhat certifications and warranty does this bat include?\n\nThe bat is certified for USSSA, NSA, and ISA play and includes a one-year warranty.","brand":"Sports Performance Park","offers":[{"title":"34 inch \/ 25 oz","offer_id":58562156560758,"sku":"MSPGLR1LU-34\/25","price":134.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/6640\/0374\/files\/MSPGLR1LU_1.jpg?v=1787963065","url":"https:\/\/sportsperformancepark.shop\/products\/2026-marucci-gridlock-12-75-endload-1pc-usssa-slowpitch-softball-bat","provider":"Sports Performance Park","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
