In/Tense Carbon Composite Barrel for Maximum Pop
The In/Tense Carbon Composite barrel is built for hitters who want explosive contact on every swing. Seamless construction delivers precision-balanced stiffness, a massive sweet spot, and a powerful trampoline effect — with the -5 drop adding extra barrel mass through the zone for stronger, more impactful swings.
Tuned Balance: End-Load Feel Built for Power
The Tuned Balance Performance swing weight delivers a slight end-load through the -5 profile, giving older players the extra barrel mass to drive balls with authority. Strong, athletic hitters who want to swing heavy, hit loud, and step up their power game will find the -5 the ideal choice in the Icon Fest lineup.
Zero Loss Collar Technology & RevGrip Handle
Zero Loss Collar Technology locks in the barrel-handle connection for a stiffer, more responsive feel that keeps energy from escaping at contact. The RevGrip handle delivers premium grip, cushion, and tack so hitters can swing with full commitment without losing control — deep into a long game day or tournament weekend.
Exclusive Icon Fest Style Built for the Next Level
Festival-inspired graphics, bold color pops, and a look that hits different — the Icon Fest -5 is for hitters ready to step up in every way. Build your complete Icon Fest loadout with Rawlings baseball gloves and baseball bags & equipment at Smash It Sports.

The -5 is best for older, stronger youth players approaching high school baseball who need a heavier bat to build power and prepare their swing for the next level of competition.
What is In/Tense Carbon Composite?
In/Tense Carbon Composite is Rawlings' proprietary barrel material delivering seamless construction, explosive energy transfer, and a massive, responsive trampoline effect across the full sweet spot.
How does the -5 compare to the -10 and -8 Icon Fest models?
