2011 Easton SRV3 Synergy Speed Helmer Review

Inside information told us that Easton didn't exactly like losing a ton of money in 2009 on their ASA reveal line of bats. They basically told the ASA they were either going to be allowed to make their bats according to the older hotter standard or they were pulling out of making any more ASA softball bats. This year's bats validate that information as they are definitely hotter than 98MPH when broken in.

12" barrel so sweet spot is smaller but bat speed is greater. This is a great power hitter's bat. With the shorter barrel you will get much more bat whip and distance. The sweet spot is a little smaller due to the power hitter's design but not hard to find at all. Some of the 2011 Eastons have been developing what we would describe as paint stress lines. The composite weave pattern will flex and cause the paint to be stressed in straight lines along the barrel of the bat either vertically or at an angle around the bat. We have seen this happen to some very quickly in stock form and others not at all. It appears that in most cases the lines do not affect the structural integrity of the bat though.The bats will still perform at a very high level for a long time afterwards from what we have seen so far.
