Hype Fire

Easton continues to light up baseball with its latest innovation, the Hype Fire bat. The Hype Fire features state-of-the-art materials and engineering to deliver explosive power, unmatched speed, and precision control. Designed with input from professional hitters, the Hype Fire aims to elevate the game of any player who wields it, burning past the competition with every swing. Known for blending cutting-edge technology with unparalleled craftsmanship, Easton has been long been a favorite among players of all ages and skill levels.


**Perfect bat for:** The powerful young player that still gets to use USSSA Bats.


### Key features include:



* **Revolutionary Composite Technology:** Crafted for peak performance, offering superior durability and an expanded sweet spot.
* **Dynamic Feel System:** Provides the ultimate in energy transfer and feel for more power and efficiency in every swing.
* **Speed Cap Design:** Enhances the sound and feel of the bat upon contact, coupled with improved barrel flexibility for a bigger impact.
* **VRSCOR Handle Insert:** Offers a solid feel and increased comfort, reducing vibration for a smoother swing.

### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [DeMarini CF](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-20/l59398)

The Easton Hype Fire aims to outshine competitors like the Louisville Slugger Meta and the DeMarini CF with its focus on a high-octane combination of power, speed, and comfort. While the Slugger Meta is known for its groundbreaking vibration-dampening system and the DeMarini CF for its balanced swing, the Hype Fire is engineered to capture the best of both worlds, adding a distinctive edge in aesthetics and ergonomic design to ignite the performance of any player looking to make a statement.


### Progression of the Easton Hype Fire Baseball Bat:


The biggest differences between the 2023 and 2024 is a redesigned TCT™ Barrel aimed at widening the sweet spot, improving off-center hits, and maximizing the overall performance area.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* My son loves the 30", 5oz Easton Fire bat. It's hot straight out of the wrapper and feels lighter than his old one. The colors are bold but the grip is great. It has a normal composite bat sound and a well-balanced swing with a lot of pop. Highly recommended.
* My son switched to Easton Hype Fire bat after being a fan of Marucci for years. He loves the huge sweet spot, lighter weight and tons of pop. According to him, it's the perfect bat for USSSA.
* I love to see the confidence this bat gives my son. He's a very strong hitter, but with this bat, I see him being more patient, trusting his swing more, and hitting harder balls. 


**CONS**



* My son used this bat for about 2-3 months before small cracks in the bat started to form. He still used it because his old bat (30-inch -8 Demarini Zoa) was broken. It is an amazing bat but it probably won't last a full season in 13U baseball because of the speed.
* My son's new bat, a 30" (-8), has a small 1/2" crack after just two sessions of coach pitch BP with around 50 hits. It's brittle and we've never used it on a tee or machine. I'm surprised at how quickly it broke.
* I wish they were made stronger. It has great pop, great swing but the durability is lacking. Our original purchase cracked in a month and our replacement cracked in 2 months.


### Certification: USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The Hype Fire is the hottest, lightest swinging bat right now. The swing rate is very fast. It's a balanced, two piece composite bat. The first ones that came out had some breakage issues but they are now on that bat's 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 flames are yellow, orange, and red. The players love that.

CATX2 Composite

## DeMarini CF Baseball Bat


The CF series is DeMarini’s flagship line of composite bats, known for their innovative technology and exceptional performance for a wide range of players. The CF series combines comfortable contact, explosive power, and unmatched swing speed. Featuring Paraflex Plus Composite construction, the CF series has a large, light sweet spot, and its 3Fusion Connection dramatically reduces vibration and enhances weight distribution. 

**Perfect bat for**: Young players seeking a two-piece composite bat with maximum barrel control and pop.


### Key features include: 




* **Paraflex Plus Composite Barrel:** Engineered for consistent and responsive performance across a wide hitting area, enhancing pop and feel.
* **3Fusion Connection:** Reduces vibration and redirects energy back into the barrel, improving performance and comfort.
* **ReAction End Cap:** Increases barrel performance without compromising swing speed, optimizing the overall balance of the bat.
* **Two-Piece Construction:** Delivers a nice flex at contact, creating a whip effect that drives the ball with more force.



### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [Easton Ghost X Evolution](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/ghost-x-evolution/bat-material-composite/l228675)

The DeMarini CF stands out with its exceptional use of Paraflex Plus Composite and 3Fusion Connection technology, which provides a perfect blend of feel, flex, and performance. While the Meta is celebrated for its EKO Composite Barrel and balanced swing weight, and the Ghost X Evolution is recognized for its Dynamic Feel System, the CF shines with its ability to deliver a large sweet spot, reduce hand sting, and maintain a consistently high level of performance, positioning it as a top choice for players who prioritize comfort and power.


###

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity) 

**PROS**



* A kid in a slump hit his first-ever home run with this bat. It arrived just in time for a playoff game and worked great for my average-sized 11-year-old son - not too heavy.
* After breaking in this bat properly, it really performs well! My son uses it for our USSSA 8U Travel team and you can easily tell when it's hit on the sweet spot. The bat is also forgiving on mis-hits, often resulting in faster grounders than usual (for this age group) and very high pop.
* This bat has more pop than most USA bats, similar to BBCOR/USSA. We broke it in with tee hits, and my son hit missiles and balls over the fence on the first day. Expensive, but worth it for avid players.

**CONS**



* Great indoor results with the new non-Easton bat during coach pitch pre-season. Disappointing mid-season pop-up infield hits. I've always used Easton before, won't try other brands again.
* Great pop, but poor performance when missing sweet spot. Treated with care, but still cracked in Apr. Son upset I didn't allow use in cold weather, with heavy balls or pitching machines. It was mostly used as game bat last year, did not last into 2nd season.
* My son's bat barrel cracked after hitting his first HR, leaving him without a bat during All Stars and elimination series.


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USA, USSSA


### Expert Notes (Parker)

The DeMarini CF is a classic model that goes back to 2015 and offers one of the hottest models (2017) but is limited in use as its performance surpasses bat standards. Overall, the CF reflects a classic design which has been the same since 2015. A two-piece composite that offers a large barrel and sweet spot with a lightweight handle that creates a whip-like feel to it with the flexible connection between the handle and barrel.

Voodoo One

## DeMarini Voodoo One Baseball Bats


The DeMarini Voodoo One is designed for balanced swing weight and a classic feel. It serves as DeMarini’s premier bat for players seeking one-piece alloy construction. The Voodoo One is an excellent complement to the two-piece alloy construction that DeMarini uses in the broader Voodoo Series, and is a well-balanced bat for maximizing swing speed and bat control. The bat’s one-piece construction offers the explosive power of a bat that’s stiff on contact, and its barrel is bookended with a reinforced knob and cap that have helped make a name for DeMarini over the past 35 years.

**Perfect bat for:** Elite high school and collegiate hitters seeking a one-piece alloy bat to maximize swing speed and control.


### Key features include: 




* **X14 Alloy Barrel:** Engineered for precision and consistency, providing a lightweight but powerful swing.
* **Tracer End Cap:** Increases barrel performance without sacrificing swing speed, enhancing the overall feel.
* **1-Piece Construction:** Offers a stiff feel on contact, maximizing energy transfer to the ball for explosive power.
* **Balanced Swing Weight:** Designed for optimal swing speed and control, making it perfect for hitters looking to improve their batting average.
* **Fortified Metal Compound Knob:** Features a combo of alloy and composite materials to enhance durability and allow for improved leverage. 
 



### Top competitors comparison: [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709) and the [Louisville Slugger Solo](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/solo/l7816)

The DeMarini Voodoo One stands out with its balanced swing weight and explosive power, perfect for hitters focusing on precision and speed. Competing models like the Easton ADV 360 and the Louisville Slugger Solo offer similar technologies for balance and speed. Still, the Voodoo One's unique combination of the X14 alloy barrel and Tracer End Cap provides a distinctive edge in power and feel.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* This is an excellent one-piece bat with a balanced feel.
* My son is using his first BBCOR bat. Although he was previously using a -5 USSSA bat, he hasn't noticed any difference in the weight. He has already had success with it on the big ball field this fall. This one-piece alloy bat is great, especially in the Northeast where temperatures are cooler.
* I am very satisfied with this bat. My son has recently started playing on a 60/90 field. This bat has excellent balance and a large sweet spot. It has great pop right out of the wrapper, so there is no need to break it in. Additionally, it looks great too.

**CONS**



* Bat is too light, causing players to swing early. It doesn't have as much power as a BBCOR composite bat. 
* Not suitable for heavy hitters; ideal for children who require a lighter bat for swinging. Grip must be perfect, or it will sting hands.
* The sound changed, and when the handle was tapped on the ground, it produced a vibrating sound.


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts)) 

DeMarini's Voodoo One swings light and offers a ton of pop thanks to its stiff one-piece alloy construction. While the small barrel might not be for everyone, contact hitters and power swingers both appreciate its speed and distance potential. If you're a player seeking a light bat with serious pop, the Voodoo One deserves a swing. 

Pop: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Durability: ⭐⭐⭐

Vibration: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

## 22. DeMarini Zoa Bat

Launched in 2022, it’s crafted to deliver a combination of power, balance, and barrel performance for elite players at the high school and college levels.

* **ReAction End Cap:** Increases barrel performance without sacrificing swing speed, optimizing the balance between power and control.
* **Two-Piece Composite Construction:** Delivers a blend of speed and power, allowing for maximum bat speed and a more efficient energy transfer.
* **Anomaly End Cap:** This precision-engineered end cap complements the Zoa's lightweight design, ensuring a blend of speed and balance that's rare in high-performance bats.


### Top competitors comparison: [Louisville Slugger Meta](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/meta/l59403) and the [Easton Maxum Ultra](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/maxum-ultra/l165626)
 
The DeMarini Zoa sets itself apart with its Continuous Fiber Composite Barrel, offering a unique blend of durability, power, and a vast sweet spot. While the Louisville Slugger Meta is renowned for its EKO composite barrel, emphasizing a combination of swing speed and barrel control, and the Easton Maxum Ultra is favored for its seamless carbon construction providing the longest barrel in the game, the Zoa specializes in delivering a high-performance hitting experience with enhanced feedback and energy transfer, making it a prime choice for competitive players aiming to maximize their impact at the plate.


### Progression of the DeMarini Zoa Baseball Bat:


Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

**2022 - [Zoa BBCOR](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/zoa/bat-type-bbcor/l259878)** 
- Continuous Fiber Composite Barrel for consistent performance 
- Direct Connection handle system for increased stiffness and energy transfer 
- Gapped Wall technology to maximize barrel performance 
 
**2023 - [Zoa Glitch](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/zoa-glitch/l347741)** 
- Updated end cap for improved balance and swing speed 
- New colorway


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)


**PROS**



* My son just got a new bat to replace his META and it's great! It's hot out of the wrapper, has a forgiving barrel and almost no vibration. He absolutely crushed the ball. We can't wait to see how it performs when it's fully broken in.
* If you like end-loaded bats, this one has surprising pop with low noise. It feels good when squared up and I personally love it. My rating is 8/10. 
* "This bat increased my exit velocity and feels smooth when swinging. It's the best bat I've ever used."

**CONS**



* This bat is heavy and can be hard to locate the barrel. I recommended for very strong players. If you swing a drop 5 alloy, try a drop 8 Zoa.
* Sounds dead. My son hates it. We bought this bat because of the good reviews. Its expensive and has no pop.
* Only downside is that the weather needs to be warmer or it will crack the bat due to it being all composite.

 


### **Certification**: BBCOR


### Expert Notes ([Tony](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/batexperts))

The Zoa has a strong barrel and connection, making it a heavier, end loaded bat overall. Your smaller players don't get the same bat speed or same performance with that Zoa as they do with the CF. The Zoa is one of those power hitter two-piece composites. 


Pop: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Durability: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Vibration: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
