My son turns 11 in mid-May. He is 78 lbs. He is using a 2 5/8" SL13S310 29/19 for travel ball. Most of his hits favor the middle of the field to right center. He needs a 2 1/4" bat for town ball.

I was favoring the 30" bat and trying to keep the weight the same as the travel ball bat, knowing he could use the 2 1/4" bat next town ball season. I prefer the alloy bat but would entertain the composite, if it is a better choice.

I'm thinking about getting the S1, the S2, or the XL3. I don't know which one to get, so I have some questions. What bat has the most power? What bat has the most pop? Also what bat do you think would be good for contact hitters who get a lot of hits who do not care about weight but looking for a good powerful bat with pop
The 2013 Easton XL3: YB13X3 Youth has a slightly end loaded feel and would be preferred by players more oriented for power hitting. The Easton S1 and S2 would better suit a contact hitter with their balanced swing weight. Performance between the three bats will be very comparable.

I have last yrs model , seems to have lost its pop, is that possible? We have been using in 35 to 40 degree temperatures, don't know if there is a need to trade for a new model or wait till weather warms up.

What is the best type of bat for rif balls (aluminum or composite)? 10 year old son plays with rif in spring league and diamonds in the summer league. RIf balls, not the squish T-balls.

Is there a difference in performance in the XL1 full composite versus XL3 full aluminum alloy?
