that is what you get for buy a Boxxer. Marzocchi rules. He did case the piss out of that one though.....
true man, every fork can snap/bend. but zocchis(mazo) are less likely to break than a bomber. also fox are less likely to break than a zocchi. but in that video with those condition and the way the rider didnt pop of the tail of the jump with his rear tire and then leaned foward. well lets just say nothing was going to go the way it should and no fork coulda made that drop with the way he landed.
probably get them for a discount or for free, but if i was him i would never ride those again, ide be scared shitless
dunno bout that mate... its not as iff they just fell apart is it!!? i mean unless he's planning on casing stuff like that again im sure he will be fine with boxxers!!!

to youngy - oh yeah ? well, f*ck you too. And by the way this picture is from Colombia, not from Poland you dumbass bitch. f*ck, i didn't know that people from australia are so stupid
yo man enough with the racist shit, just because your from country doesnt mean your dumber than others
I was there a month before the worlds. the run in for that gap sucked. They also shortened it quite a bit to take the stupid out of it. Definately not easy to hit dry let alone in the rain.

thats really got nothing to do with the fork, look how it was landed, it will do the same thing if you ave a 888 or a travis.

Thats probably because you've never felt how much better a Boxxer feels than a 888. Yes the boxxer is weaker than a 888, but it's a lot lighter. It is RACE fork, they sacrificed a bit of strength for weight.
true the boxxer might be a better quality, and any fork would have snapped here, but i would take strength over weight anyday- IMO

it is a bit normal that the boxxer broke. this is a race fork which is build to resist to casing but not like that. built to be light,responsive, and enough tough. if someone here is thinking..uumm i've never a 888 broken by a racer, a bit normal because over than 60%(easily) ride boxxer in race.

damn this is the perfect how to on breaking your forks. thanks for the help im head out and try it to mine tommorow hopefully i get the same results

i think too much is broken. all the internals are crap, the lowers, and in all that commotion, the stanchions would have gotten scratched, and if you're at that race, you've got enough team backing, to get a new fork for dirt cheap, if not free.
A 'zocchi or a Fox would have done something very similar. I know that people are probably going to be like "l0l stfu n00b mazoracchi r teh seXX0rz r0cksh0x sux" but I don't even have a RS fork. Just saying that a fork would need to be stupidly tough to survive that, which could mean that it's too heavy for racing...
Just my 2 pence...

yeah you would have needed to be running something like monster ts to get out of that without damage, but they weigh like 12 lbs...
but all this guy needs to do is pop some sellotape on that and itll be fine.

im not saying that a marz fork in general wouldnt break, im talking speficically about the monster T. stupidly strong, but stupidly heavy, and no fork from RS would match the strength.

boxxer world cups are lightweight highly tuned and only really built to last a race before being rebuilt. However, guaranteed if that case was done on any other fork, they would land up in the same or worse condition than them.
You little kids who say "buy zocci" really dont know what your talking about.
You dont see zocci's break as often because they are not used as often.... they are not high performance forks
END OF .

Not always. Since I made my comment up there ^^^ I went to Fort Bill. There was another guy I was riding with who had Boxxer World Cups. The first time we went down the DH track his forks bent. My DJ3s were fine.

for all who hate boxxers(me inclusive) - imagine what would happen with another fork in this crash? - every fork would crack or bent. if not, the head tube would ripp off...so it does not matter, the bike were killed...
its really amazing to read the comments here...POD!

ive seen folding bikes but i don't think thats supost to do that or isthis rocksocs new marketing tactic for 2009 all components fold up for easy transportation
If you put together how fast he was going and all the force that comes down when you case a double that bad, I think any fork would have failed.

The diving is on the thin tubes. therefore builds submersible pipes Marzocchi thicker. break, there were several occasions when Marzocchi. but they are much more stable.
MARZOCCHI Forever.
Marzocchi has stability with more experiences.
so mainly because they produce motorcycle forks.

USD forks do not need as much in diameter dip tubes.
but 35mm should be, is too easy to break.
Most offer high-end 35mm fork dip tube diameter.
The Boxx has a dip tube diameter as a dirt jumper 1 from Marzocchi.
Downhill is not easy, but get healthy and quick
