Columbia 300 has produced some of the most memorable bowling balls in the history of the sport, the Cuda name and technology are towards the top of that list. The features of the original Cuda were ahead of their time; the new Cuda PowerCOR uses an updated version of the Cuda core for today’s environment. The PowerCOR is a dense but drillable inner piece of the core, eliminating drilling restrictions. A dense flip block is added to the core body that moves mass away from the center of the ball, creating more differential and imbalance.
Cuda PowerCOR was a great addition to the Columbia 300 line last season; the throwback name and updated technology resonated with bowlers and has been a success. We’re excited to follow up the Cuda PowerCOR solid with the Cuda PowerCOR Pearl. The pearl version allowed us to apply HK22 technology in a shiny version to a strong symmetric core in the Columbia 300 line, something bowlers have been asking for. This version of HK22 uses ERT Pearl additives for ideal length and lots of kick on the backend.
