Description
Easton ADV Hype -10 USSSA Baseball Bat: SL22HYP10
The Hype is always buzzing when Easton drops a new all-composite bat! Reach for this Hype, bring it to the batter's box and be amazed what happens when you connect with a baseball!
Bat Benefits
Easton has bolstered this all-composite bat with a few new updates. (1) They have updated their composite material that will be featured on this signature bat. This bat has Easton's Thermo Composite Technology (similar to the TCT Material that Easton used in the past). And they are saying that this material allows for an incredibly large barrel & sweet spot to exist while also being very lightweight. (2) The connection point on this bat has been revised to what will now be known as the ConneXion Max connector piece. This connector piece will make the bat have a stiff feel when hitting a baseball and due to there being extra Nitrocell Foam added to the connection piece, it should do an incredible job of limiting the vibration that gets down to a player's hands on a miss-hit. (3) Lastly, the handle is built with the new Pro-Stiff Carbon technology. This handle will feel incredibly solid in a batter's hands and Easton believes that top-notch hitters will really enjoy the feel it produces.
This drop 10 and USSSA rated bat will deliver the largest-allowed 2-3/4" barrel diameter that should cover up a large area of the strike zone! This bat will certainly carry on the awesome tradition of incredible composite bats made by Easton!
Warranty
Easton knows that they have a reputation for making some of the highest-performing bats in the game. And they also know that since their reputation is built on creating high-quality baseball bats, they have to deliver on the warranty side as well. Due to that knowledge, Easton extends a twelve (12) month manufacturer’s warranty on this bat. If you buy this bat from us and feel as though a warranty issue has arisen on the bat within 12 months of the purchase date, please let our Bat Experts know. Our Experts are trained in product and warranty knowledge and will be happy to get you all the information and materials needed to begin a warranty replacement process with Easton.

Impressive Improvement Larry Hibdon Other
Pros: grip, barrel size, confidence level
Cons: purchased to late in season. wish I would've got early in season.
9 Year Old Slugger Ali Parent
Pros: My 9 year old son is thrilled with this new bat. He’s “crushing it” and has a big smile after every at bat. We’ve only had it a few months, so I can’t speak to durability. Would certainly recommend this bat. There is a 1 year warranty.
Cons: None yet.
Solid Eyal Allen Player
Pros: Durable, light swing weight, looks sick... It's definitely worth it. Good bat
Cons: No crazy pop.
Great Bat! Desmond Parent
Pros: This bat is the most balanced bat my son has ever felt, he says it has all the pop he could ever need and that it feels great!
Cons: The grip will wear down relatively fast, and it is pretty loud.
Hype Rob Coach
Pros: Nice pop out of the wrapper
Cons: Not sure about durability yet only used a few times
Not super impressed Klaye Slack Parent
Pros: It feels ok
Cons: Not the pop we expected
Miles Miles Parent
Pros: Great bat highly recommended buying this bat. My son hit a home run over the first game he use the bat.
Cons: Great bat
A different batter Charley Coach
Pros: Solid bat ball comes off twice as fastb feel good ..only had month or so a lot of kids uses it..Everyone got a kick out of the names engraved on it.. bargain deal 2022 top rated bat cheaper price not much difference then the 2023 composite bat except price Do you go ahead and pay 400 and I’ll pay 175 will get the same outcome he love this bat.
Cons: To me lil top heavy but we moved up from 28-18 to a 30/20..but it keeps him moving The old Saying loose hands r fast hands… Don’t want your batter standing there like a statue
Hype is Hype Abel Tirado Coach
Pros: My son is 7 and playing club ball. His 29” hype was too big so we picked up the 28”. He’s been hitting hard shots to the outfield, 2 stand up doubles this past weekend. The other players on the team are always asking to hit with it. Good sound, good pop, and definitely built up his confidence when at bat.
Cons: Zero
Easton's best bat in years. Ed Parent
Pros: Great pop right out of the wrapper and turns into a firecracker after a few hundred hits. My son is 8 and a little undersized so we wanted to find something that would give his hits a little more pop than the Axe bat he was using. This does the trick. He is swinging the 27" -10 and has added plenty of distance on routine hits. Far more doubles and triples in his game now. He loves the soft knob too.
Cons: Really nothing to complain about so far.
Bat reviews Parent
Pros: Nice light swing
Cons: Paint rubs off easily
Adv Hype a great priced Composite bat Travis T Parent
Pros: Light/Balanced swinging bat, pop is good. Still need to break in the bat. Thin handle with a small knob. Sons hand do not get wrung up on miss hits.
Cons: Thin handle, needs a taper to the knob
8U Coach
Pros: My son loves it!!!
Cons: Just have not had it long enough
Easton Hype Review Lavar Smith Player
Pros: The bat is very balanced with lots of pop. It seems pretty durable and has a great sound coming off the bat at contact.
Cons: The sweet spot is small and difficult to hit. Hitting off the tee, you never notice the sting, but if you miss any pitched balls off the handle or end of the bat, you will get rung up pretty good in your hands. We've given this bat over 400 swings to see if the full break in process would alleviate some of the sting, but it has not.
LOVE IT jack Player
Pros: One of the best bats that i have had, the bat is balanced, pop is amazing and i just love the color of it.
Cons: noting
Can’t beat price on solid 2p composite Ted Coach
Pros: Son plays 9U and moved from the orange 28” Mako to new 29” -10 USSSA Hype. He loves it so far. Tried lots of other (much more expensive) options but he liked the feel of the Hype right away. It’s well balanced, not end-loaded. Lots of pop from the start. No vibration. Happy with the purchase. Hard to beat a sub-$200 2-piece fully composite option that’s USSSA 1.15BPF and has a large 2 3/4” barrel.
Cons: None so far. It’s only been a few weeks so will give 4/5 on durability for now.
Very nice composite bat with good value Cj Parent
Pros: Balanced, easy to swing. My son was able to find the sweet spot after breaking it in with a couple hundred swings. He had the Easton alx alloy same length and drop, and thus felt similar but had more pop.
Cons: None
12 year old boy broke bat in 6 months Kyle Parent
Pros: Got good pop.
Cons: Did not last 7 months for a 12 year old boy. He is the only one to use this bat.
Easton AdV Hype Brian Parent
Pros: The bat is as advertised. Ton of pop right out of box. Started using it for fall ball. We got the 30” drop 10. Bat is lightweight and balanced. Ball jumps off bat from the start. Hopefully this will be the updated version of the orange mako. Big barrel to send through the strike zone for younger hitters. Hopefully the bat will hold up and continue to impress.
Cons: Did not have bat long enough to determine.
Very good bat, great price! Ryan Haas Coach
Pros: Well balanced - good pop/ sound out of box…
Cons: Too early to rate durability…
very good bat Kaimana Player
Pros: It is a very good bat and it has amazing pop and the durability is good, took a couple hundred swings and no cracks forming.
Cons: sweet spot is a bit tight but when you find it the goes
Solid Bat! Chris G. Coach
Pros: My son is a contact/gap hitter so we were looking for a nice and balanced composite and this fit the bill. Extremely balanced and the ball seems to jump off the bat. He has used it over the last 2 months, so about 4 tournaments and multiple practices and its holding up fine. Took off a star for durability due to the paint chipping, but its purely cosmetic.
Cons: The matte paint finish looks awesome out of the wrapper, just be prepared for it to get scratched up. Outside of that none!
Hot bat Nic Wilson Coach
Pros: Sounds great when hitting. Feels light but seems to have a lot of pop. I always listen for the sound of a bat and this bat has the sound I’m looking for. Excited to see what my son can do after watching him bp several times.
Cons: $375 with tax for a 7 year olds bat!!! Ridiculous
Easton Hype Eli Anderson Parent
Pros: Great feel, balanced. No vibration
Cons: Not much pop out of the wrapper. My sons Easton Alpha ($140 bat) had much more pop. We have about 400 hits on the Hype now and it seems to be getting better and breaking in
Excellent, well-balanced bat J Parent
Pros: My Son used the 30" 20 oz Easton Hype this past Fall baseball season and loved the durability and well balanced barrel. The bat has plenty of pop that lasts with multiple practice and game reps.
Cons: The only component of the bat that my Son mentioned as a con was that the knob on the end of the bat was slightly uncomfortable. This may be more of a personal preference rather than a shortcoming of the bat.
The Hype is for real Brad Correll owner Mission Baseball Coach
Pros: We've had a couple months now in fall ball to work with these bats in my travel baseball organization. I've not had any negative feedback or reviews. The bat very balanced, as most players say it feels lighter than the same size bat they swing in other brands meaning great weight distribution. It has a ton of pop right out of the wrapper and continues to get hotter. Also seems to be very durable. We've left some in the facility for our players to use during indoor workouts and they love them. I also feel most parents are comfortable with the price point due to what they are getting in quality. I can also say that the bat seems to be Equally balanced with great pop throughout all lengths and weights, I know some youth bats seem to be hotter in certain sizes than others but this one has been consistent across-the-board.
Cons: The only con I could say might would be the grip. The grip seems to wear down pretty quick but most of the kids nowadays add different grips to their bats anyway so not a big deal for us.
Hot!! Justin Whisnant Coach
Pros: My son is a 65lb 10u player. He swung the DS swag 28” drop 10 in the spring it’s been a good bat. Never been a Easton fan but we gave this bat a try sense it’s came out before some of the others and we’re glad we did. First it’s better than the swag as far as pop and bat sting. The ball really jumps off the bat right out the wrapper can’t wait to see this bats full potential once broken in
Cons: To early to tell able durability
Easton HYPE -10 Rick Coach
Pros: Super HOT. Even out of the wrapper. Super balanced with a ton of pop!
Cons: Really hoping it’s more durable than the last few years of Eastons USSSA bats! Durability is my only concern.
Easton is Back Brad Coach
Pros: This bat is the most balanced swing weight i have seen in the youth category. My 8U player can sewing the 29 drop 10 as hard as his 27 Mariucci. I have a 10U player that has been swinging a 30 but he took some batting practice with this and also liked it. Seems lighter than 19 ounces. Has great POP finally Easton has got back to their pervious reputation. I think this bat will rival the DeMarini composite for performance and Easton may have taken back the top spot with this bat. No vibration, smooth swing, light weight, good POP.
Cons: Have not hit enough balls to be able to review on Durability.
