The Juiced Custom UD13 is a customizable wood bat offered in birch or maple, with a long barrel profile of the i13 and a tapered thin handle. The page describes it as a modern redesign of the i13 and lists length, drop and cup options.
| Model code | UD13 |
|---|---|
| Wood | Birch or mapleWhat this meansBirch. Softer than maple and more forgiving of mis-hits; hardens with use. A good choice for a first wood bat and for younger players. Maple. Dense and hard, the most common pro wood. Hits hard and holds up when the player squares the ball up; breaks rather than flakes when mis-hit. Quality varies a lot by maker. Tip: Maple from a good maker is the best wood bat money can buy; maple from a cheap one is the worst. |
| Drop | −4, −3, −2, −1, Even, +1, +2, +3What this meansDrop is length minus weight: a 30 in, 20 oz bat is a -10. A bigger drop number means a lighter bat for its length. Younger players use -10 to -13; USSSA 13U is usually capped at -5; high school and college are -3. Tip: Check the drop your league allows before you look at anything else. |
| Barrel | long barrel profile of the i13, but narrows it down to add not only balance, but durabilityWhat this meansA thinner barrel (under about 2.45 in on a wood bat), with less wood to hit with. Its size does not decide the balance: some skinny-barrel bats are end-loaded. |
| Handle | tapered thin handleWhat this meansA handle under about 0.93 in. It whips through the zone and feels fast, but it stings more on mis-hits and, in wood, breaks more easily. Common on pro models. Tip: Thin handles and young hands do not mix well in cold weather; expect sting. |
| Lengths | 31, 32, 32.5, 32.75, 33.25, 33, 33.5, 33.75, 34, 34.25, 34.5, 35 in |
