Mat Brown Bolsters Kali Protectives Sales Team
Stormy evening in April 2001, I was hitchhiking thru the great north with nothing more than my pet shrew, a kale salad with balsamic reduction, toasted pine nuts, and a chipolte lime vinegretee dressing when the blizzards hit.
Shelter and survival mode kicked in as I finished the last of the perfectly BBQ'd kale salad, retired my fork to my ruck sack and felt the cold shiver thru me down to my core.
Exhausted, freezing and with my vision fading I saw a light ahead.. I mustered everything insdie myself but as I crawled along the ground thru the blowing snow and other frozen bodies darkness overcame me... I closed my eyes in the snow and slept.. darkness.
Awaking in a panic, I grabbed my iPhone 6SE with lighting port charger, large crystal clear retina screen and weighing in at only 143grams and checked the time.... Days had past since I remembered being in the storm, what has happened I thought?
It has been said by the elders of this small fishing village of Carson City, Alaska, that Matttt (with 4 t's) Brown does not do pushups BUT in fact, pushes the earth down. Mattttttt (with 7 t's) Brown I later learned rescued me, carrying me hundreds of miles thru the dessert wasteland of the tundra and nourished me back to health with the sweat from his bosom.
I never had the chance to thank Matttttttttttt (with 13 t's) for his kindness and bosom sweat that saved my life that night in Singapore but listening to the villagers talk and share with me the stories about how he owns a bear skin rug in his home but the bear is not in fact dead, it is only too scared to move. These stories showed me to true grit and character of this noble hero and I shall not forget his deed.
As I thanked the elders and was leaving the village I saw a Camphor Tree on the outskirts of town with an engraving in it.. I couldn't quite make out the words but as I got closer they became clear, they were written in Mr. Browns cursive and it read:
"KALI"
Matttttttttttttttt knew about Kali before Kali knew about Kali, and even lived in Cali before Cali was Kali.

Is it true that Matt Brown does not do push ups? But, in fact, pushes the earth down!?

Last question.
If Kanya West and Kim Kardashian where drowning, and you only had time to save one of them.. What kind of sandwich would you make?
Keep rocking the great products.

Marzocchi - Ask Us Anything
@mriva75 - just had a quick read over the DVO emerald review and it doesn't seem like this 'interesting tech' is going over well.
http://www.pinkbike.com/news/dvo-emerald-review-2014.html
"when compared to either a RockShox BoXXer World Cup or a Fox 40 FLOAT, the Emerald is more expensive by nearly $500, and weighs over a pound more, which takes some of the luster off its shiny green appearance."

Marzocchi - Ask Us Anything
Oh Hi there! Long time Ginger, first time commenter.
My question is about MotoX / SuperX suspension with Marzocchi here in North America. Is there going to be sales and servicing of them at our local shops? Also, has any talk been had about a rear fork (haha) for MX / SX that is aftermarket and not OE?
