the second, first-rib portion is located between the second, first-rib end and the third, first-rib portion;

the first, first-rib portion comprises a first, first-rib thickness substantially parallel to the rib surface;

the second, first-rib portion comprises a second, first-rib thickness substantially parallel to the rib surface;

the third, first-rib portion comprises a third, first-rib thickness substantially parallel to the rib surface;

and

the first and second first-rib thicknesses are greater than the third first-rib thickness;

a second rib protruding from the rib surface of the body;

wherein:

the second rib comprises:

a first, second-rib end, and a second, second-rib end, wherein the first and second second-rib ends are opposite each other, and

a first, second-rib portion, a second, second-rib portion, and a third, second-rib portion;

wherein the first, second, and third second-rib portions protrude from the rib surface of the body;

the first, second-rib portion is located between the first, second-rib end and the third, second-rib portion;

the second, second-rib portion is located between the second, second-rib end and the third, second-rib portion;

the first, second-rib portion comprises a first, second-rib thickness substantially parallel to the rib surface;

the second, second-rib portion comprises a second, second-rib thickness substantially parallel to the rib surface;

the third, second-rib portion comprises a third, second-rib thickness substantially parallel to the rib surface;

and

the first and second second-rib thicknesses are greater than the third second-rib thickness;

and

a first connecting rib extending between the first rib and the second rib, the first connecting rib comprises a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the first connecting rib is integrally formed with the first rib, and the second end of the first connecting rib is integrally formed with the second rib, wherein the first connecting rib has a varying thickness extending from the first end of the first connecting rib toward the second end of the first connecting rib.

2. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein:

the body further comprises a first side rib extending from the front end to the rear end positioned on the heel end; and

a second side rib extending from the front end to the rear end positioned on the toe end;

wherein:

the first side rib is asymmetric to the second side rib such that the first side rib and the second side rib are not equidistant from a strikeface centerpoint of the front end.

3. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein:

the rib surface comprises a first high amplitude zone at a first one of the crown, the sole, or the skirt;

the third first-rib portion is located at the first high amplitude zone; and

the first and second first-rib portions are located outside the first high amplitude zone.

4. The golf club head of claim 3 , wherein:

the first high amplitude zone comprises a location at the first one of the crown, the sole, or the skirt where a maximum oscillation amplitude of the body exists upon a golf shot impact between a golf ball and a strikeface of the front end of the body.

5. The golf club head of claim 4 , wherein:

the first and second rib comprise a height, wherein the heights of the first and second rib range from 0.038 cm to 0.064 cm.

6. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein:

the first connecting rib comprises a thickness, wherein the thickness ranges from 0.165 cm to 0.191 cm.

7. The golf club head of claim 5 , wherein:

the first connecting rib comprises a height, wherein the height of the first connecting rib matches the height of the first and second ribs.

8. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein:

the body further comprises a second connecting rib positioned between the first rib and the second rib, wherein the second connecting rib is parallel with the first connecting rib.

9. The golf club head of claim 3 , wherein:

a portion of the first connecting rib is positioned on the first high amplitude zone.
