Victus Nova Lit Beacon -10 Technology Breakdown

Carbon Eclipse Composite Barrel

The Carbon Eclipse Composite barrel brings elite-level technology to the -10 swing. High-performance carbon fiber reinforcement encased in a protective, impact-resistant outer layer delivers the pop and toughness of a premium composite Ñ giving younger hitters access to the same performance technology used at the highest levels of youth baseball.

XL Barrel + XL Sweet Spot

The XL barrel profile is especially valuable for the -10 hitter. A bigger sweet spot means more forgiveness on off-center contact Ñ critical for developing hitters building consistency and confidence at the plate. More contact, more success, more fun.

DHT Ð Dynamic Handle Technology

DHT Ð Dynamic Handle Technology optimizes the flex-to-stiffness ratio in the handle for a lively, responsive feel at contact. For the -10 swing, this translates to a bat that feels fast and reactive through the zone Ñ perfect for players focused on building quick, efficient swings.

2SIX Ð Two Smooth Impact Connection

The 2SIX (Two Smooth Impact Connection) absorbs and redirects negative vibration through a flex-optimized damping material, while a threaded connection delivers a solid, clean feel at the point of contact. For developing hitters, eliminating painful sting on mishits builds confidence and keeps players in the box.

Micro-Perforated Soft-Touch Grip

The Micro-Perforated Soft-Touch Grip offers a comfortable, secure feel throughout the swing. Whether a player is developing fundamentals or competing at the highest youth levels, this grip keeps hands relaxed and in control from first pitch to last out.

Frequently Asked Questions Ð Victus Nova Lit Beacon -10 USSSA

Is the 2026 Victus Nova Lit Beacon -10 legal for USSSA play?

Yes. The Victus Nova Lit Beacon -10 is USSSA 1.15 BPF certified and approved for USSSA travel baseball leagues and tournaments. Always check with your league director if you have questions about specific equipment rules.

What age group is the -10 drop weight designed for?

The -10 is most common for youth players between approximately 7 and 11 years old, though the right drop weight always depends on a player's strength and bat speed rather than age alone. If a player is struggling to get through the hitting zone quickly with a heavier bat, moving to a -10 can unlock better mechanics and more consistent contact.

When should my player move from a -10 to a -8 or -5?

It's time to consider stepping up from a -10 when your player generates enough bat speed and strength to control a heavier swing without mechanical breakdown. Signs include consistently squaring up pitches with authority and a coach or scout recommending a heavier bat. A good rule of thumb: move up in drop weight only when the current drop feels too light and swing speed is clearly exceeding the bat's design range.

Does the Victus Beacon -10 require break-in before game use?

Yes. As a composite bat, the Beacon -10 needs a proper break-in to reach peak performance. Hit 150Ð200 balls with real baseballs at 50Ð75% effort, rotating the bat a quarter turn between each hit. Avoid temperatures below 60¡F during break-in. Never use rubber, foam, or dimple balls to break in a composite bat.

Will the XL barrel help my youth player make more contact?

Yes. The XL barrel profile on the Beacon -10 expands the effective hitting surface, giving youth hitters more forgiveness on slightly mis-hit balls. This is especially valuable for developing players who are still building the consistency to square up pitches on every swing Ñ the larger sweet spot keeps more contact in play.

Yes! Smash It Sports offers a price match guarantee. If you find the 2026 Victus Nova Lit Beacon -10 cheaper at an authorized retailer, contact us and we'll match the price Ñ guaranteed. We're here to make sure every family gets the best deal on elite equipment.
