Utilizing Eastonís patented Visual Composite Technology (VCT), the Synergy Clarity bat features a composite construction which includes a clear composite glass outer diameter that allows both players and officials to see the batís design lay-up. This visual technology is made possible by Eastonís Strained Energy Optimization patent.
The benefit of VCT is that it allows Easton to design high-performance bats that protect the integrity of the game. When the design of the Synergy Clarity is compromised, the outer diameter of the bat will show delamination markings. Delaminations are breakdowns in the epoxy resin system that holds the composite structure together.† A delamination greater than 1" in any direction deems a bat illegal for play - as it signifies that the batís performance level exceeds association performance standards of 98 MPH. Bats without delaminations are legal for play and will provide great Synergy performance players have known for years.
"Not only does the Synergy Clarity clearly push Eastonís technological barrier, the bat also re-defines appearance by revealing a patented design, bringing yet another edge to the company's impressive collection," said Matt Arndt, senior vice president of Eastonís baseball/softball division.
Easton continues its technologically driven focus by including the following features in its Synergy lines:
Extended Hitting Area ñ Patented Extended Flex TM design lengthens the hitting area along the entire barrel by increasing barrel flex toward the contour and end cap. Design and Construction - Patented Integrated Matrix Technology TM (IMX) optimizes the relationship between materials, design and manufacturing process.
Swing Weight (M.O.I.) - Each bat design has received precision weight loading in both end cap and handle sections to provide optimal swing weights in order maximize bat speed through the hitting zone. Vibration Reduction System TM (VRS) - Solid feel and the elimination of vibration combine to the give hitterís unmatched comfort at the plate.
The Easton Synergy Clarity SRV1B -10 was met with great anticipation as many of our testers had enjoyed great success with previous Easton bats. Our reviewers were a combination of Rec. ball and Travel ball hitters and their early consensus was that this bat produced great right out of the gates. This -10 ounce bat fit our group of tester well as they consistently produced with this bat. Our reviewers hit this bat over 300 hundred times and the bats high performance was well received across the board.
The sweet spot was very generous for our reviewers and many of our girls commented that they actually missed the bats sweet spot and still managed to drive the ball well. After several hundred swings the bat showed literally no signs of durability problems.
Said one reviewer, "This bat is clearly a high performance bat, itís the type of bat that builds your confidence before you even take the field, this is the stick you want in your hands when the game is on the line."
