Amazon.com Product Description Enhance your sweet spot and your performance with the multi-wall all-composite Easton LCN8 Stealth CNT all-composite bat, which combines aerospace-grade materials and a world-class barrel design to produce a new standard in high performance. Extremely lightweight, it has a -13 length-to-weight ratio. It's approved for play in Little League, Babe Ruth Baseball, Dixie Youth Baseball, Pony Baseball, and AABC. 
The multi-wall, all-composite Stealth Comp CNT has an enhanced sweet spot for top performance. | Easton's carbon nanotube and patented IMX (Integrated MatriX) technologies help to strengthen the composite structure, and the patented Extended Flex design lengthens the sweet spot to provide maximum performance along the entire length of the barrel. The patented Opti-Flex CNT composite handle technology provides maximum handle flex--three times greater than an aluminum bat. And the patented ConneXion technology acts like a hinge to provide the most efficient energy transfer from handle to barrel for maximum bat head "whip" and a quicker bat with more power through the hitting zone. Other features include a black Pro-Tack cushioned grip, orange barrel, techno blue shaft separated from barrel by rubber ring, and a one-year limited 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. Today, Jas. D. Easton, Inc. is a privately owned manufacturer, marketer, and distributor of sporting equipment, headquartered in Van Nuys, California. It currently employs more than 1,000 people worldwide in various distribution, manufacturing, sales and marketing capacities. Other operations are located in Salt Lake City, Utah, Mexico, and Canada. Easton is considered one of the world's preeminent innovators, designers, and manufacturers of sporting equipment. Much of this success is due to Easton's corporate strategy centered around producing products for the highest level of performance. Throughout its history, Easton has not only grown from within, but through the selective acquisition of other technology-based sporting goods companies.

My son's favorite bat July 29, 2008 Dah-Dee I bought this for my 9-year-old son (53", 66lbs.) to use this season in Little League, hoping that the extra weight drop (-13 here vs. -11 in his old bat) would help his bat speed. Seems to have worked, fewer strikeouts and more solid contact since switching to the LCN8, which is now his favorite bat. It's not too flexy, has a pretty solid feel and sound (relative to other composite bats, which can feel and sound "soft" in comparison to aluminum alloy bats), and very good pop. Keep an eye on prices if you're interested, as Amazon will periodically drop it significantly for no good reason that I can figure out; kept it in my shopping cart for a couple of weeks and ended up with a great deal on a great bat.
