Short Porch USA Blackout X — USA/ASA Slowpitch Softball Bat

Welcome to the dark side of performance.

The 2026 Short Porch USA Blackout X isn't just another USA/ASA slowpitch bat — it's a power-focused build engineered to elevate every at-bat. Featuring a massive 13" Spin Tech Barrel with a soft barrel design, the Blackout X gives hitters an extended sweet spot, explosive barrel response, and the confidence to attack every pitch. From the first swing to the final at-bat, this bat is built to deliver the kind of performance that demands attention.

13" Spin Tech Barrel with Soft Barrel Design

The Blackout X's 13" Spin Tech barrel is engineered with a soft barrel profile that extends the sweet spot and delivers explosive response on contact — giving power hitters more margin for error without sacrificing pop.

2-Piece Aramid Construction

Built with advanced Aramid construction, the Blackout X delivers the strength, durability, and explosive response serious hitters expect. Its high-performance 2-piece design creates a smooth, responsive feel through contact while helping reduce unwanted vibration in the hands — for a powerful, controlled swing that feels as good as it performs.

800 PSI Non-Linear Exemption

The 800 PSI non-linear exemption allows for a softer barrel profile, helping create a more responsive feel while maintaining the performance characteristics power hitters demand within USA/ASA certification standards.

.5 oz End Load for Added Power

The .5 oz end load puts added mass behind the barrel, creating added momentum through the hitting zone and helping generate maximum power at contact. It's loaded enough to provide a powerful feel without sacrificing control or swingability.

This is the bat you bring when you want to turn the lights out.
