Nice to see a new asymmetric core design comes out from Columbia

Apogee
To ancient Greeks, Apogee meant highest point. Today, Apogee means reaching the height of asymmetric performance and the apex of power. Columbia 300 pairs the new hard-hitting Capstone™ core with shiny pearl M80™ reactive coverstock to produce corner-turning backends, devastating power and peak pin carry. This absolute choice also features the strongest asymmetric core in Columbia 300 history and introduces a new out-of-this-world color - Celestial Bronze.
