2024 Easton Hype Fire Composite USSSA Certified Bat, Drop 5, 25 oz, 30" (Used)

The 2024 Easton Hype Fire Drop 5 USSSA baseball bat is a two-piece composite bat known for its high performance, large sweet spot, and balanced feel. The 25 oz bat has a length of 30 inches and a 2 3/4-inch barrel diameter, making it suitable for youth players in USSSA travel baseball. Performance features: Redesigned Thermo Composite Technology (TCT) barrel: The barrel was re-engineered to create a wider sweet spot and lower compression, resulting in harder and more consistent contact with the ball, even on mishits. Balanced swing weight: The balanced feel of the bat, along with a lower Moment of Inertia (MOI), is designed for more bat speed and better barrel control. Connexion Max: This elastomer connector interlocks the handle and barrel, dampening vibration to provide a solid, comfortable feel on contact. OptiFlex Handle: The handle's flex is specifically engineered for elite travel ball athletes, offering an optimal balance of stiffness and flex for enhanced feel and power. Power Boost Soft Knob: The knob is designed to give hitters more leverage, reduce vibration, and improve comfort on the bottom hand. Flow-Tack Grip: This provides a comfortable and tacky feel for better control during the swing. Appearance: Colorway: The bat features a vibrant combination of yellow, orange, and red, with a "flame-inspired" graphic design. Special editions: A limited-edition "Arctic Flame" version of the bat was also released with a blue color scheme. Noteworthy information The high-performance nature of the bat led to its temporary banning in April 2024 from some Perfect Game events, although it remains USSSA certified.

The Easton Hype Fire Baseball Bat is USSSA and USA-approved, featuring a redesigned Thermo Composite Technology barrel for a large sweet spot and consistent power. The Opti-Flex handle optimizes stiffness for balanced swing control, while the Power Boost Soft Knob reduces vibration and enhances grip comfort, allowing players to focus on hitting.

“

The Hype Fire is a balanced, two piece composite bat with a very fast swing rate. The first ones that came out had some breakage issues but they are now on the 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 players love the flames. Certain leauges are starting to ban this bat, check that before you buy.
