Ghost X Hyperlite

## Easton Ghost X Hyperlite Baseball Bat

The Easton Ghost X Hyperlite series is renowned for its lightweight design—focused on providing speed and bat control for players. The Ghost X Hyperlite is a good example of the innovation, performance, and quality that has made Easton’s bats a favorite among players since 1922. With products for every level of the game, Easton continues to push the boundaries of technology and materials in their bats and other gear.

**Perfect bat for:** Younger players looking to improve bat speed with an ultra-light swing on a single composite bat.


### Key features include:



* **Composite Material:** Utilizing Easton’s exclusive EXACT Carbon Technology, this bat offers a lightweight, yet powerful construction for maximized swing speed and power.
* **HYPERLITE Barrel Design:** Optimizes the sweet spot for maximum performance across the entire barrel, allowing for quicker swings and more contact.
* **Speed Cap™:** Enhances the sound of the bat on contact, while also improving the flexibility of the barrel for a more responsive hit.
* **Lizard Skins™ Grip:** Provides ultimate comfort and tack, reducing hand fatigue and improving control during swings.

The Easton Ghost X Hyperlite holds its ground with its focus on lightweight design and swing speed, making it especially suitable for younger players or those looking to improve bat speed. While the Louisville Slugger Meta boasts a more advanced vibration-dampening system, and the DeMarini CF Zen offers a more balanced swing weight, the Ghost X Hyperlite excels in rapid swing speed and comfort.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)  

**PROS**



* My 8-year-old son finds the bat comfortable, well-balanced, and lightweight, with a great grip and pop.
* My child enjoys using it. It has a satisfying sound when hit solidly, but it lacks pop due to being a USA bat.
* A little heavy for a six-year-old, but it's a good bat for raking when choking up. Great value for closeouts!
* 

**CONS**



* After using this bat in two games, my son found it disappointing as the ball didn't travel far, likely due to its weight.
* If you're looking for extreme pop and exit speed, this may not be the best option for you.
* I didn't notice much of a difference in how the ball came off this bat compared to my son's $75 bat.

### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

This USA bat is designed for little league or a pony leagues. It won't be a very high-performance bat and, in general, is designed for safety. Typically, your little leaguer, who uses the USA stamp, is a player at an entry-level ability. With that said, the Ghost X Hyperlite was one of the best available USA bats. But any USA bat is going to be a mediocre performer overall. The Ghost X Hyperlite is very lightweight and very easy to swing. Smaller players do well with it.

Pop: ⭐⭐⭐

Velo

### Expert Notes
The longest lasting metal bat series on the market is still at its peak. Rawlings legendary Velo series returned in 2022, with a Velo ACP release that I’ve heard hitters say offers unparalleled balance at the plate. Over time, the Rawlings Velo series has evolved by incorporating the ACP (Accelerated Carbon Performance) line that adds extra carbon in the barrel, which we’ve heard does a lot to increase pop. While Velo’s aren’t the best looking bats you’re going to find, they make up for the plainness with top-notch performance. Rawlings’ resilient Velo series should continue to be a favorite for hard-nosed hitters who prefer production over flash.

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.
