2027 Marucci ASURA Rise (-11) Fastpitch Softball Bat: MFPASR11 (DEMO)
Meet the ASURA Rise — engineered for the next era of fastpitch power. A dream to swing. A nightmare to pitch. The Rise brings a longer inner barrel for a wider sweet spot and a more forgiving barrel. The new AV™ Knob is built for a smoother feel in your hands and on contact, and every length and weight drop is individually tuned to deliver consistent performance. The result is a bat that feels smoother, swings faster and delivers more consistent performance across the barrel—so you can step into every at-bat ready to rise. Dream higher. Hit farther. KEY SPECS/TECH Rise Sync Barrel Technology: Rise up to a smarter, more forgiving barrel. It features an elongated, fully suspended inner barrel that extends the active hitting zone by up to 10%, widening the sweet spot and increasing barrel responsiveness—without sacrificing balance or feel. AV™ Knob (Anti-Vibration Technology): Built to Rise above. The AV™ Knob is designed to reduce vibration and kill sting, not feel. Built as one solid system with a soft, elastomeric outer shell, you’ll get a smoother feel in your hands and connected feedback without harsh vibration. PFX Composite Handle & OLS Connection: Your dream swing starts here. Player-Optimized Flex Composite handle engineered specifically by weight drop adjusting flex characteristics to enhance swing speed, power and feel. Sized for All: Half-Length offerings in both 32.5” & 33.5” – allowing players to dial in to their most effective length. Tailored Performance: Each bat length and drop is individually tuned with an optimized inner barrel design, maximizing performance across the lineup.

Progressive Gap Geometry: Variable spacing and inner barrel compression based upon each individual bat model allows localized compliance while maintaining structural stability. Fully Suspended Construction: Inner barrel is free to move inside the bat, allowing it to flex on contact and absorb energy more efficiently. Optimized Energy Transfer Path: A longer contact zone helps spread out impact across the barrel, improving performance and durability Platform-Consistent Tuning: Preserves swing weight, balance point and feel across all lengths, drops and weights. Performance Benefits Wider Sweet Spot: Increased inner barrel coverage expands the effective hitting area. Enhanced Barrel Responsiveness: Faster recovery and livelier response on both centered and off-center contact. Improved Forgiveness: More consistent performance across a broader range of impact locations. Refined Feel: Progressive compliance delivers feedback without excessive vibration.
