Hype Fire

## Easton Hype Fire Baseball Bat

Easton continues to light up baseball with its latest innovation, the Hype Fire bat. The Hype Fire features state-of-the-art materials and engineering to deliver explosive power, unmatched speed, and precision control. Designed with input from professional hitters, the Hype Fire aims to elevate the game of any player who wields it, burning past the competition with every swing. Known for blending cutting-edge technology with unparalleled craftsmanship, Easton has been long been a favorite among players of all ages and skill levels.


**Perfect bat for:** The powerful young player that still gets to use USSSA Bats.


### Key features include:



* **Revolutionary Composite Technology:** Crafted for peak performance, offering superior durability and an expanded sweet spot.
* **Dynamic Feel System:** Provides the ultimate in energy transfer and feel for more power and efficiency in every swing.
* **Speed Cap Design:** Enhances the sound and feel of the bat upon contact, coupled with improved barrel flexibility for a bigger impact.
* **VRSCOR Handle Insert:** Offers a solid feel and increased comfort, reducing vibration for a smoother swing.
* **Optimized Barrel Profile:** Increased barrel length provides a larger hitting area, suited for precision hitting.
* **Attention-Grabbing Aesthetic:** Features a distinctive fiery design that stands out on the field, complemented by a high-grip handle for maximum control.


### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [DeMarini CF](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-20/l59398)

The Easton Hype Fire aims to outshine competitors like the Louisville Slugger Meta and the DeMarini CF with its focus on a high-octane combination of power, speed, and comfort. While the Slugger Meta is known for its groundbreaking vibration-dampening system and the DeMarini CF for its balanced swing, the Hype Fire is engineered to capture the best of both worlds, adding a distinctive edge in aesthetics and ergonomic design to ignite the performance of any player looking to make a statement.


### Progression of the Easton Hype Fire Baseball Bat:


The biggest differences between the 2023 and 2024 is a redesigned TCT™ Barrel aimed at widening the sweet spot, improving off-center hits, and maximizing the overall performance area.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* My son loves the 30", 5oz Easton Fire bat. It's hot straight out of the wrapper and feels lighter than his old one. The colors are bold but the grip is great. It has a normal composite bat sound and a well-balanced swing with a lot of pop. Highly recommended.
* My son switched to Easton Hype Fire bat after being a fan of Marucci for years. He loves the huge sweet spot, lighter weight and tons of pop. According to him, it's the perfect bat for USSSA.
* I love to see the confidence this bat gives my son. He's a very strong hitter, but with this bat, I see him being more patient, trusting his swing more, and hitting harder balls. 


**CONS**



* My son used this bat for about 2-3 months before small cracks in the bat started to form. He still used it because his old bat (30-inch -8 Demarini Zoa) was broken. It is an amazing bat but it probably won't last a full season in 13U baseball because of the speed.
* My son's new bat, a 30" (-8), has a small 1/2" crack after just two sessions of coach pitch BP with around 50 hits. It's brittle and we've never used it on a tee or machine. I'm surprised at how quickly it broke.
* I wish they were made stronger. It has great pop, great swing but the durability is lacking. Our original purchase cracked in a month and our replacement cracked in 2 months.

### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The Hype Fire is the hottest, lightest swinging bat right now. The swing rate is very fast. It's a balanced, two piece composite bat. The first ones that came out had some breakage issues but they are now on that bat's second gen. We've not seen any of the new ones breaking. And to top it all off, it has the coolest paint job. The flames are yellow, orange, and red. The players love that.

ADV 360

## Easton ADV 360 Baseball Bat

  

The Easton ADV 360 is a technological pinnacle in the brand’s long history of designing baseball bats. The ADV 360’s design takes advantage of Easton's Launch Composite Technology, a larger barrel contour, and a more responsive (and forgiving) sweet spot. The bat’s overall engineering ensures precision and flexibility across the entire barrel for more consistent performance. With its two-piece iSO ConneXion™ design, the ADV 360 absorbs vibration, delivering an unmatched feel at contact.

  
**Perfect bat for**: Hitters looking for an edge in bat speed, comfort, and overall performance.

  

### Key features include:  
  

-   Launch Composite Technology: Provides a larger barrel contour with a more responsive and forgiving sweet spot for maximum performance.
    
-   Two-Piece iSO ConneXion™: Isolates the handle from the barrel, using Nitrocell foam to absorb vibration for a smoother feel upon contact.
    
-   Power Boost™ Soft Knob Technology: Increases leverage and power potential, while improving comfort and bat control.
    
-   Speed Cap™: Offers a more flexible and responsive barrel with a natural sound on impact.
    
-   DFS Carbon Handle: Creates an extra stiff feel at contact, maximizing energy transfer and offering zero vibration.
    

  

### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [DeMarini CF](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-20/l59398)

  

Against competitors like the Louisville Slugger Meta and the DeMarini CF, the Easton ADV 360 distinguishes itself with its 360 Engineering and Launch Composite Technology, offering a unique combination of barrel flex, balance, and tuned performance. While the Meta is renowned for its EKO Composite Barrel and balanced swing, and the DeMarini CF is celebrated for its Paraflex Plus Composite for flexibility, the ADV 360's comprehensive design focuses on delivering a premium blend of speed, power, and comfort, setting a new benchmark for performance.  
  

### Progression of the Easton ADV 360:  
  

Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

- The latest iteration of the Power Boost™ “Soft Knob” and Lizard Skins™ grip for peak comfort, vibration reduction, and tack.  
  

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**

-   I've always used Easton gear for baseball. Got this bat for my 9-year-old and it's impressive. Good pop and similar to the Easton Ghost, but with more power.
    
-   Nearly every player on our son's team uses or borrows this bat. It's popular because it hits home runs well.
    
-   I am 12 years old and I hit a home run in my last game with my Rawlings bat. Looking forward to next year!
    

**CONS**

-   I got two bats for my kids, a 29-11 and a 30-10. Both broke even though we used them properly and never misused them. I had to send them back to the manufacturer.
    
-   My son loved the bat, it improved his confidence and hitting skills. However, it cracked unexpectedly despite following the instructions. We're disappointed with the quality, and my son was heartbroken.
    
-   Although the bat was great while it worked, it's disappointing that it failed after just one year, especially not at the barrel. There seem to be manufacturing and durability issues with this expensive bat.
    

  

### Certification: USA, USSSA, BBCOR

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Easton ADV 360 is a two-piece composite bat. It has a light swing and big barrel. Perfect for the younger hitter. I think it is popular because of the paint job, which is bright neon yellow. It is more of a look than a performance bat, but still a very good bat that doesn’t have a huge amount of breakage. It's an average bat for either Little League or USSSA.

Beast X Hybrid

### Product Description 

What do you think of when you hear the word “beast?” Strength. Force. Power. If you’re a power hitter, then the Easton Beast X Hybrid may be a great bat choice for you. During the 2018 season, the Beast X Hybrid was the successor of the Easton Z-CORE baseball bat. The Beast X Hybrid is constructed with Advanced Thermal Alloy, also known as ATAC alloy. ATAC alloy is responsible for the Beast X Hybrid’s pop --  or its explosive sound. The Beast X Hybrid comes with Easton's X-tended barrel design that features Z-CORE internal core technology. This lengthy barrel results in a massive sweet spot. Easton also added a 1.4mm Hyperskin grip to each Beast X Hybrid bat, which guarantees zero sting in the hands on mishits. If you’re looking for a slightly end loaded swing weight and a fast swing speed, be sure to check out the Easton Beast X Hybrid.

### Expert Notes 

The 2018 Easton Beast X is the new version of the 2017 Easton Z-Core Hybrid. They both use the same Z-Core barrel that was made famous in the 2016 version. If you’re a player who likes a slight end load to their bat, wants the largest barrel on a hybrid bat, and seek a good value on a performance two piece bat, the Beast X could be for you. In terms of marketing appeal and some minor upgrades, the 2018 Beast X Hybrid does come equipped with a new name for its barrel. The alloy is an upgrade, in Easton's view at least, in terms of durability and performance. The tactile difference between 2018 and 2017 is the thicker grip (1.4mm), when compared to the 1.2mm grip for the 2017 Z-Core Hybrid.

### Expert Notes
Easton’s XL1 bat series retired while it was still on top—but that doesn’t mean these
bats should stop seeing steady use. The most recent Easton XL1 release was in 2015,
with a bright orange bat that came with a two-piece composite, end loaded feel that was
preferred by many of my power hitter teammates. These same hitters also mentioned
that the neon yellow 2014 XL1 model is not only equally good as its newer orange
evolution, but also one of the best metal bats of all time. (_Pitcher's note_: I still have trauma
from all the bombs that Easton XL1 bats have hit against me.)

Beast X

### Expert Notes
The 2018 Beast X is another stellar addition to the Easton metal bat family. It achieved a sort of cult status upon its release due to it being one of the lightest one piece alloy bats available—and many baseball players (me included) really love the highlighter yellow colorway it came with. In my opinion, it’s the best looking metal bat that Easton bat ever made. The Beast X evolved from Easton’s Z-Core line of bats, although it adds a lizard skin grip and lighter swing speed that the Z-Core models didn’t have. If you don’t want to break the bank on a balanced, lightweight, aesthetically pleasing bat, consider the Easton Beast X this season.
