Easton SCN6 Stealth Comp CNT + Slow Pitch Bat

CNT Carbon Nanotube and patented IMX¿ - Integrated Matrix strengthens composite structures, optimizing designs and materials for max performance. Patented Extended Flex¿ design lengthens the sweet spot by increasing the barrel flex towards the contour and end of the bat to provide max performance along the entire length of the barrel. Easton's patented Opti-Flex¿ CNT composite handle provides max handle flex ¿ twice greater than aluminum in the case of the SCN6. Patented ConneXion¿ acts like a hinge to provide the most efficient energy transfer from handle to barrel for max bat head whip and a quicker bat with more power. Hottest 100+ MPH performance. + 13.5" Extended Barrel Design. Slightly end loaded for more power. Ultra-thin 29/32" handle with Pro-Tack cushioned grip. Does not comply with current ASA Bat Performance Standards. Does comply with all other major softball association Bat Performance Standards in effect as of January 1,2007 ¿ USSSA, NSA, ISA, SSUSA and ISF

Boasting a combination of Carbon Nanotube (CNT) and Integrated Matrix (IMX) technologies, the SCN6 Stealth Comp CNT+ bat continues to dominate the slow-pitch game. The CNT construction strengthens the bat's composite structures, thus optimizing the design for maximum performance, while the IMX synchronizes the relationship between the materials, design technologies, and manufacturing process. Players will also love the ConneXion technology, which acts like a hinge to provide an efficient energy transfer from the handle to the barrel, creating a whip-like action through the hitting zone to generate more power. Add in the company's patented Opti-Flex CNT composite handle technology--which provides a maximum handle flex that's two times greater than aluminum--and you have a bat that easily meets all 2007 performance standards from USSSA, NSA, ISA, SSUSA, and ISF. Note that the bat does not comply with current ASA standards.

Other details include an Extended Flex design that stretches the sweet spot along the entire length of the extra-long 13.5-inch barrel; an ultra-thin 29/32-inch handle with a Pro-Tack cushioned grip; a 2-1/4-inch barrel diameter; and a slightly end-loaded design that produces even more power. The Stealth Comp CNT+ bat--which is designed exclusively for slow-pitch softball play--is backed by a one-year warranty.

About Easton
In 1922, Doug Easton began crafting custom wood bows and cedar arrows in Watsonville, California. Although Doug produced tournament-grade, footed cedar arrows for the archery champions of that era, he was constantly frustrated with the inconsistency and lack of uniformity of wood shafts. Convinced that consistently straight uniform arrow shafts were impossible to manufacture from wood, Doug turned his attentions to aluminum. In 1939, he began manufacturing aluminum arrows in Los Angeles. His instincts about this material were correct, and in 1941, California archer Larry Hughes won the national championship with a set of Doug's aluminum arrows. This was the beginning of a trend that would change traditional archery and transcend into numerous other sports arenas over the next 50 years.
