[Wood] : Ho×Maple. ‘Ho’ is the name of a Japanese material and it’s light in weight and very flexible. It’s a soft material however, we strengthened the barrel zone from a one piece wood using our original method. You can feel a stronger impact and it is much easier to control. Maple is very durable and has a much tighter grain structure. Therefore, Maple is very dense and extremely responsive, meaning that you can feel the ball leave the bat upon contact.
