Easton has been on the forefront of many enhancements in sporting good technology. It is a company that was started in the 1930’s by Doug Easton originally because of his ambition to crafting better quality arrows using aluminum that would improve traditional archery. Easton has evolved into a leader in making sporting equipment because of their advances in the use of aluminum and that has carried into many sports such as baseball, softball, hockey and biking over the last 50 years, all while standing behind the quality of what they distribute into the market.
Years later, Easton dove into producing baseball bats and has stood out because of their innovative aluminum baseball bats, a design that was introduced in the early 1970’s. They have been the first to improve on new technologies every step of the way throughout the evolution of aluminum baseball bats. Easton baseball bat developers have lead the way in making baseball bats out of new lighter weight and more durable metals such as scandium and titanium for enhanced performance as well as using composite metals that are state-of-the-art as of today. Easton also had a hand in introducing multi-wall technology which adds to the overall area and responsiveness of the ’sweet spot’ on the barrel. Easton now makes a triple-wall bat known as the ‘tri-shell’ design and is the only bat making company to use this technology. They were the first to develop a two-part baseball bat when they started producing their ‘Connexion’ line, which gives flexibility to the bat for enhanced power. Easton baseball bats are setting trends for other bat making companies today.
Easton now provides many models of aluminum baseball bats to ensure that there is a bat out there to meet a player’s unique needs. They make youth, high-school, and collegiate certified baseball bats as well as an adult series. Easton baseball bat reviews are always more than satisfactory and the improvements on their products are made to improve your game.
