- Re: the shock absorbers on the bat---
-
- There were indeed shocks (actually they were dampers) on the bat
- the only differance between then and now is that the bat only
- had one per side instead of 4 on the current design
-
- The idea of the dampers is that they would take out high
- frequency changes in swing, but still allow the slow swings
- that were supposed to be designed into the ride.
-
- have a nice day woodieheads
