2014 Easton Power Brigade Fastpitch Series

Written by Mac M | Nov 14, 2013 8:46:30 AM

The Easton Power Brigade Fastpitch Series is back for another season and set to impress. Divided into the Speed Series and XL Series, Easton has ensured that their 2014 line features a specific model engineered to fit a wide variety of players.

The MAKO, FS1, FS2 and FS3 comprise the Speed Series which is specifically designed for players looking for a lighter swing weight and lower M.O.I. for increased bat control and higher swing speeds.

The FX1 and FX2 make up the XL Series and are perfect options for the power hitter looking for a huge sweet spot and heavier swing weight with their end loaded design. The entire Power Brigade Fastpitch Series is also approved for play in USSSA, ASA, NSA, ISA, and ISF.

 

MAKO - FP14MK

  • TCT™ Thermo Composite Technology for a huge sweet spot and unmatched bat speed
  • Two-piece ConneXion™ Technology to maximize energy transfer and eliminate vibration
  • Available sizes: 30” 20 oz, 31” 21 oz, 32” 22 oz, 33” 23 oz, 34” 24 oz

The brand-new Thermo Composite Technology in the MAKO allows Easton to produce a bat with the fastest bat speed through the zone and the most barrel in the zone. With a massive sweet spot and extremely balanced swing weight, the MAKO offers the best features from both the FS1 and FX1 models.

 

FS1 - FP14S1

  • MX Composite barrel, SIC Black Carbon Composite handle for optimized sweet spot and stiffer flex
  • Two-piece ConneXion™ Technology to maximize energy transfer and eliminate vibration
  • Available sizes: 30” 20 oz, 31” 21 oz, 32” 22 oz, 33” 23 oz, 34” 24 oz

The FS1 offers a streamlined barrel design that removes excess mass from the barrel to create a very balanced swing weight for the highest swing speeds possible. The two-piece design creates additional bat whip during the swing which translates to an increase in trampoline effect.

 

FS2 - FP14S2

  • IMX Composite barrel, SIC Black Carbon Composite handle for optimized sweet spot and stiffer flex
  • One-piece design for increased bat control and balance
  • Available sizes: 29” 19 oz, 30” 20 oz, 31” 21 oz, 32” 22 oz, 33” 23 oz, 34” 24 oz

The FS2 is a solid option that offers the same benefits as the FS1 in regards to balance and bat speed. The one-piece design of the FS2 provides a stiffer feel for the player with faster swing speeds that still prefers an even weight distribution.

 

FS3 - FP14S3

  • MX Composite barrel and handle for optimized sweet spot
  • One-piece design for increased bat control and balance
  • Available sizes: 28” 16 oz, 29” 17 oz, 30” 18 oz, 31” 19 oz, 32” 20 oz, 33” 21 oz, 34” 22 oz

The FS3 rounds out the Speed Series and offers the lightest weight in the Power Brigade Series with its -12 length to weight ratio. Its ultra-light weight is specifically designed for younger players looking for higher swing speeds and the advanced player looking for optimal control during their swing.

 

FX1 - FP14X1

  • IMX Composite barrel, SIC Black Carbon Composite handle for optimized sweet spot and stiffer flex
  • Two-piece ConneXion™ Technology to maximize energy transfer and eliminate vibration
  • Available sizes: 32” 23 oz, 33” 24 oz, 34” 25 oz

The FX1 is the perfect blend of power and flex with the extended barrel and two-piece design. With an extended sweet spot and -9 length to weight ratio, the FX1 helps players with higher swing speeds generate the most momentum and power possible.

 

FX2 - FP14X2

  • IMX Composite barrel, SIC Black Carbon Composite handle for optimized sweet spot and stiffer flex
  • One-piece design for increased bat control
  • Available sizes: 32” 23 oz, 33” 24 oz, 34” 25 oz

The FX2 combines the extended barrel design of the FX1 for a huge sweet spot and the one-piece, single system design for a stiffer flex. The stiff flex and heavier swing weight make this a great option for the power hitter seeking more control and efficient energy transfer during the swing.
