Our verdict

An adult two-piece composite USSSA bat with a large barrel, a carbon fiber handle and a soft knob. The weight row in the spec table is unusable, so check the exact weight before ordering.

Overview

A ConneXion Max connection joins the handle and barrel of the Easton Hype USSSA, which is built as a balanced two-piece composite. The handle uses extra-stiff carbon fibers, foam is injected to reduce vibration and the knob is soft.

Choose it for a USSSA composite with a big barrel and a stiff handle. The title names two drops, the item code in the specs names one, and the weight row reads like an error, so verify the version.

Who it's for

An adult USSSA hitter gets a composite bat with a stiff handle and a soft knob. Players in other leagues, or anyone who needs a confirmed weight, should look elsewhere or ask first.
