Much of this page was written in the summer of 2010, and a few new models have been added to Easton's lineup for 2011. Those models have been included on this page as well. Click on the links below the pictures for more information on each model.

Important Notice!

Several leagues have announced moratoriums against the use of composite bats for the 2011 baseball season. This may include many of the bats on this page. Be sure to check out the rules of the league you are playing in this year. For more info check out the baseball bat rules page.

Stealth II Regular Flex, Stiff Flex, & BSS3

Update: These bats are not approved for NCAA for NFHS (high school) for 2011 and are largely unavailable today.

The Stealth IIs are the same as the Stealth 75 and 95 from the 2010 Easton baseball bats with a different paint job. The Regular Flex is the same as the Speed 75, and the Stiff Flex is the Speed 95 from last year. Obviously, the Regular Flex has a "regular" amount of flex in the handle, while the Stiff Flex model has a stiffer handle. They are both 2-piece, all composite models that use Easton's IMX composite, and ConneXion (CXN) technologies.

Another interesting fact is that Easton has designed a composite bat that is approved for NCAA play in 2010. The previous two Stealth models are the BSS1 and BSS2. The NCAA approved model is a 2-piece, all composite model and is simply known as the Stealth Speed Adult BSS3. You'll notice that all of the 2011 models have white grips on them instead of the BSS3.

Update: These bats are not approved for NCAA for NFHS (high school) for 2011 and are largely unavailable today.

Rival BBCOR & Rival XXL (2-5/8" & 2-3/4" Barrel)

The Rival & Rival XL Ozone is a 1-piece all aluminum model that is similar to last year's V12. The Ozone model uses Easton's V12 Scandium alloy, as well as their Ozone technology. The Rival uses Easton's new THT100 alloy. The claim is that this bat has the largest sweet spot of all the aluminum bats in baseball.

Stealth Speed II XL

The Stealth Speed II XL is the same as last year's Stealth Speed XL model. It's an all composite 2-piece design that has the same extended barrel as last year's model. The only difference is this year, they've reduced the drop from -10 to -12. It's the same bat, but 2 ounces lighter than last year and a new paint job. It uses Easton's IMX composite technology throughout the entire bat. The Speed II XL runs at $200.

Update: These bats are not approved for Little League for 2011.
