My understanding, based on a conversation with a friend who was in Brazil and is a close friend of Marcus Bonna's, is that this is exactly what happened. It looks to me like this isn't a cheap knockoff--this is the exact thing, using the exact same materials fitted to the exact same specifications. Perhaps counterfeit was is wrong word.

Apparently they are not doing anything that is technically illegal in the United States, BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT.
