Why a Lizard Skins grip?

The grip that comes on a new bat is usually the cheapest part of it — a thin synthetic wrap picked for cost, not feel. It gets slick when your hands sweat, packs down flat in a few weeks, and does nothing about the sting on a mishit. Swapping it for a Lizard Skins DSP Ultra is the biggest upgrade you can make to a bat for under $25, and it’s why you’ll see them on bats from Little League through the big leagues.

It stays tacky, wet or dry

DSP stands for Durable Soft Polymer. It has a slightly tacky surface, an oval pattern and multi-directional ridges that hold your hands in place through the swing whether it’s a humid July doubleheader or a wet April morning. Because the bat isn’t sliding, hitters stop death-gripping the handle — looser hands, quicker bat.

It takes the sting out

The polymer absorbs vibration on off-barrel contact instead of sending it into your hands. The thicker the grip, the more it dampens: 1.8 mm is the most cushion, 1.1 mm is the all-around favorite and our best seller, and 0.5 mm is the pro choice for wood bats when you want to feel everything.

It lasts

The reformulated DSP holds its texture season after season, and the premium adhesive keeps it locked to the handle instead of creeping or unraveling like a worn stock wrap. Every roll is 990 mm / 39 in with pre-cut ends and a finishing strip, and it fits wood, composite or aluminum.

It looks like your bat

80+ colorways — solids, camo, Outburst, patriotic, MLB team colors. Match your uniform or make your bat impossible to mix up in the dugout.

Five-minute install

On-grip markings show exactly where to start and stop. Peel the old grip, wrap the new one, tape the finish — no tools. Watch the install video.

CheapBats.com was the very first Lizard Skins dealer — our founder met theirs at a trade show, tried the grip, and we’ve carried it ever since. We still think it’s the best grip on the market.

2026 Worth Josh Riley Bedlam XL Endload USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat 2 Piece 12.5" Barrel

2026 Worth Josh Riley Bedlam XL Endload USSSA Slowpitch Softball Bat 2 Piece 12.5" Barrel WSU6JRBEDL (WSU6JRBEDL) — The most versatile Bedlam – enough endload to drive the ball deep, enough barrel to keep you dangerous at any count.

Description

The 2026 Worth Josh Riley Signature Bedlam XL sits in the sweet spot of the Bedlam lineup. Its 12.5” X868 barrel gives you more contact surface than the XXL’s compact barrel while the XL .5oz endload provides meaningful momentum through the hitting zone without the commitment of a full 1oz load. The S-FLEX handle keeps the connection between hands and barrel tight, so your fast swing translates into fast ball speed rather than being absorbed in handle flex. Available in four weights – 25oz, 26oz, 27oz, and 28oz – the Bedlam XL is the most weight-versatile bat in the lineup and the right choice for the widest range of USSSA, ISA, and NSA hitters. The bold green-and-blue rose colorway is unmistakably Josh Riley. Ready out of the wrapper; peak performance after 100–200 swings.

X868 Barrel

Worth’s USSSA barrel technology that increases barrel flex to extend the sweetspot and maximize performance from the first swing.

S-FLEX Handle

Worth’s stiff handle option built for faster swing speeds, delivering direct power transfer from hands to barrel.

XL .5oz Endload

Moderate endload that adds momentum and distance without disrupting timing or swing mechanics.

12.5” Barrel

Expanded sweetspot profile that balances forgiveness with the explosive contact of a focused barrel.

Two-Piece Construction

Separate barrel and handle reduce vibration and maintain comfort on off-center hits.

Who This Bat Is Built For

Best for:

  • The Bedlam XL is the most versatile model in the lineup and the right call for most USSSA, ISA, and NSA players. If you’ve tried balanced bats and wanted just a little more pop, or tried full endload bats and found the 1oz too much to time up, the .5oz XL endload threads the needle perfectly. The 12.5” barrel gives you room for error while still concentrating contact in a focused, explosive zone. With four weight options – 25oz for the bat-speed maximizer, 26oz for the power/contact hybrid, 27oz for the power hitter, and 28oz for the heaviest swinger in the order – the XL fits more players than any other Bedlam model.
