Description
Easton truly believes that every player should have the opportunity to hit for power. However, the road to power hitting is different for every player. Some players need extra bat speed to reach their full power potential, while others need more weight and a bigger barrel. That's why Easton is changing the game this season and taking an approach to bats that no other manufacturer has ever tried before. Introducing the POWER Brigade; Two series, one distinct result. Whether you prefer the fast swinging Speed Series or the heavier extended barrel XL Series, POWER will be your outcome. Forget flashy designs and gimmicky names, these bats produce RESULTS. The Speed Series (S1, S2, S3) features the lowest Moment of Inertia (M.O.I.) on the market to create light swing weights and generate more power. On the other side of the spectrum, the XL Series (XL1, XL2, XL3) features extra long barrels designed to give players expanded hitting zones and more mass in the barrel, generating more power in every swing. Easton really does strive to fulfill the preferences of any type of player as both series come in two-piece IMX Composite designs (S1 and XL1), two-piece IMX Composite/THT100 Aluminum hybrid designs (S2 and XL2), and one-piece THT100 Aluminum designs (S3 and XL3). As for the materials, Easton's patented IMX Composite has proven to be one of the highest performing materials in the game year after year, while THT100 Aluminum provides superior dent and crack resistance. Throw in an array of additional world-class Easton technology and you have a new line of bats that is second to none. Easton: We Believe In Power! This bat is BBCOR Certified and approved for high school and collegiate play. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

Pros: great pop way better than demarini. Crudhed 14 homers in 20 games
Cons: pricey
Pros: great bat massive sweet spot best bat on market tried cf5 xl3 both rip its, marucci black, nike m1, and none compare to this one
Cons: nothing
Pros: Bat is great. I've hit with a few different bbcor bats and i have to say this is my favorite. The XL bats are supposed to be top heavy but i really can't feel the difference in it in the speed myself. It's a great bat.
Cons: All good bats come with a price so i don't think this is to too much. remember that you get what you pay for.
Pros: this bat is amazing, iam playin for west ashley high school and having to us bbcor bats is hard, and this bat feels better and hits better than my stealths i love this bat and i would get it for anyone
Cons:
Pros: I bought this bat for my 14yo son. BY FAR the best bat he has used. Break in time took a little while. Nice action, solid bat and well worth the investment.
Cons: none
Pros: Bought this and a Rip it prototype2, the Easton is hands down the better bat. I was not expecting the XL1 to be this hot because of the BBCOR rule, but this bat is well worth the price tag. Bat feels and sounds great.A+
Cons: NONE!!
Pros: I know some people are saying that the XL2 and the XL3 are better bats and that price doesn't matter but that't wrong! This is the most balanced of the XL bats and is also composite so the ball goes much further. If you can afford it get it! It's one of the best out there for sure!
Cons: High price but who cares if you can afford it!
Pros: I got this bat for my first year of varsity. I'm a Sophmore and I don't really have that much power. but with the xl1 I hit bombs almost every hit. well worth the investment.
Cons: first couple times you use it it kind of feels dead. but keep using it and it will def get better
Pros: Best bat by far I have ever had. I have swung the 5150 velo and i believe this bat exceeds evey bat on the market
Cons: Price
Pros: great pop best bat on the market
Cons: none
Pros: The absolute best bat that has ever been made! you barely hit with it and the ball fly's off. GREAT JOB EASTON!!!!
Cons: Absolutely none. Amazing bat, never loses its pop and always crushes the ball!!!!
Pros: Good Pop, Ball comes of barrel with authority
Cons: None yet
Pros: just got the bat and it looks and feels great only got a couple hits wit it yet and im already hittin bombs....best bbcor bat by farrr
Cons: nothin
Pros: Think this bat may have as much pop as 2011 Stealth Speed. Like the XL version a lot. Balance is similar. Cleared a fence today - - - not sure how far, but only two balls cleared it in 20 home games last summer. If you square it up, it'll go. Nice bat.
Cons: Have to use a 5150 most of the time because it's still so cold up north.
Pros: Nice bat, lots of pop.
Cons: My first bat broke at the handle/barrel connection within 60 days of owning it. I read this might be a problem. Replacement comes without warranty. If the replacement lasts as long as the first, I might be out $400 in less than 6 months!
Pros:
Cons: Rubber ring that connects handle and barrel broke. Bat has 0 pop when this happens. In the thick of Varsity schedule and have to deal with returning it
Pros: Great pop hits ball hard and you can barely swing and still crush the ball.
Cons: The bat broke in half during my last game when one of my team mates hit the ball =( Other than that the bat really is great. I think mine just may have been weak when i bought it.
Pros: great pop, huge sweet spot, great distribution of weight, great grip,
Cons: pricey, broke within first 7 games,
Pros: This bat has amazing balance, the ball goes far no matter where you hit it on the barrel, sound good even though it is bbcor. looks really good
Cons: the paint chips pretty easily but that doesnt detract from the solidness of the bat.
Pros: Had a Demarini Voodoo in the beginning of the season. Recently got this bat as the Voodoo had little pop and tiny sweet spot. This bat is 200 times better then that and has an huge sweet spot.
Cons: Have no idea why they would make it white. But stays reltivley clean with hot water, soap, and a rag
Pros: Great Bat! Hit A HR IN FIRST AT BAT IN GAME!!! ITS BETTER IF YOU TAKE SOME CUTS OFF THE TEE FOR ABOUT A 100 SWINGS. IT HAS THE SAME SWEETSPOT AS A BESR BAT!! EASTON TRULY DOES HAVE THE BEST BATS !!!
Cons:
Pros: Great bat. Great sweat spot. Loads of pop. much better then the s1.
Cons: very pricey but totally worth it!!!!
Pros: great bat, the sweet spot is great, its not realyy that top heavy i cant feel the difference from the speed Its just awesome!!!
Cons: i starting to see that the peace that holds the bat together (cxn) starts to come off
Pros: Has really good pop, nice balance,
Cons: Have had to send back to company twice this season-broke at the connection both times. I think this is a flaw!
Pros: very good pop and bat speed after broke in
Cons: mine broke after about 5 months where the handle meets the barrel. if you are like me who plays 60 games a year and have a veryfast swing speed look at the DeMarinis they are a lot better made bat
Pros: This is my favorite bat I use. After I got this bat, Easton became my fav bat people. It has a ton of pop.
Cons: The bat is a little barrel heavy, but other than that great bat.
Pros: Great weight distribution, not top heavy, great pop off of the bat. makes an awesome noise too. I am by no means a power hitter and i am hitting doubles with ease. You just need good bat speed to hit great with this bat!
Cons: Though it has a large sweetspot, if there is a mis hit toward the end of the bat your end result will be a weak ground ball or weak line drive.
Pros: i love the composite sound and it has great pop on the massive sweetspot. it seems like every hit is on the sweetspot. if you have the right swing and actually LEARN good hitting mechanics you can have a lot of bat speed just like the speed series. dont let that stop you from buying this bat!
Cons: 1. EXPENSIVE 2. break in period- not too big of a deal it will out perform alloys later
Pros: great bat
Cons:
Pros: This has been the BEST bat i have ever used in my life. I have had a chance to use the 2012 CF5 and the 2012 Voodoo...this by far has the most amazing bat ive used
Cons:
Pros: Nice pop, nice sound.
Cons: Poor durability. Used this bat on my son's freshman baseball team. Towards the end of the season, it broke in two.
Pros: horrible im dissapointed with easton ive gotten stealths and omens but this is the worst first day of bp it broke on the cxn part!
Cons: everthing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pros: Best bat in power brigade
Cons: Nothing
Pros: Great Bat. Goes really far if you hit it right on sweetspot; and if you get jammed or hit it off the end you can still muscle it out of the infield for a base-hit. It has good paint that doesn't chip, and has a barrel just about the same as BESR. Definately the best BBCOR out there.
Cons: Nothing much XD
Pros: bat supposed to be endloaded? DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT. FEELS REGULAR TO ME. MARUCCI BLACK IS MORE ENDLOADED
Cons: /
Pros: This bat is awesome! The barrel is huge and it has tons of pop, it's even comparable to BESR bats.
Cons: A bit more end-loaded than other bats, but you get used to it after a few swings. Also, this bat needs to be broken in with 100-200 hits off of a tee or soft toss.
Pros: nice pop and good weight distribution
Cons: it bends and it mess with my swing
Pros: i love this bat,has tons of pop,and great grip and also really popular in college
Cons: none so far
Pros: Holy smokes this bat has pop. Huge sweet spot great weight distribution awesome grip. Holy smokes
Cons: none
Pros: if your looking for a great bbcor this is the best bat out there. i have the demarini voodoo and i hated the bat and then i got the easton xl1 and i hit 18 homeruns in one season
Cons: lot of money but you get what you pay for
Pros: the first time i hit the the baseball the whole bat shattered i got shards of metal in my face and had to go to the hospital. Overall its was a great bat. Worth the money.
Cons: My face hurt.
Pros: This bat is the bat I looked at forever. Let me tell you it didn't disappoint me! This IS the best BBCOR bat on the market by far! It has good pop, I can't say great compared to the BESR bats but for BBCOR It's great!!
Cons: Grip gets dirty,and ball marks show easily. All minor flaws I'm still satisfied to a great deal!
Pros: great pop it feels great no mater where you hit it and it is a durable bat unlike the s1 if u are deciding between the two this is the way to go
Cons: it might be a bit top heavy for the smaller weaker players but barley noticeable overall bets bat on in the easton line
Pros: Great Bat Great Company. I had great success with the bat and you can really hit the ball far with it. The service department is terrific, I had a problem with the bat and Sent it to Easton and they sent me a new one right away.
Cons:
Pros: This bat is slightly endloaded (a tiny bit more than the Voodoo) and has a large sweetspot. it makes a great sound off the bat. it sounds like the BESR comp bats. The grip is great as well.
Cons: requires break in, no big deal though
Pros: great
Cons: none
Pros: Every time I'm at bat I hit a grand slam over a 380' fence!
Cons: None.
Pros: Absolutely amazing pop, I got this after using a friend's Voodoo and my old Vexxum. I'm here to say it's the greatest as far as pop. I am a high school player, and consistently hit the warning track. This bat gives you that extra distance any power hitter wants. It's very end loaded, but if you have the desire for that feel, buy this with no hesitation.
Cons: Broke after a year, very, very delicate around the handle area. I accidentally stepped on the handle and it was done.
Pros: My son said the bat is so smooth, he didn't even feel the ball hit the bat. Solid feel. Large sweet spot. 34" model
Cons: None
Pros: after i broke the bat in, it was amazing. best bbcor i had swung yet
Cons: after about two months the connector and the barrel started coming apart.
Pros: price$$
Cons: None
