CPSC, Black Diamond Equipment Announce Recall of Scarpa T2X Telemark Ski Boots
06518 · Recalled 2005-12-16 · CPSC page
Description
The two recalled models of T2X Telemark ski boot can be identified by a dual color ankle cuff and the marking T2X on the outside of each boot (boxes are marked with model numbers: 142045 Men's and 142046). Repaired or replaced product can be identified by a single color cuff: Men's cuffs are red, women's cuffs are blue.
Hazards
The plastic boot cuff can crack when flexed open in an unbuckled non-skiing position, causing discomfort on the ankle or shin, making the problem evident prior to skiing and thus unsuitable for use.
Reported injuries
The firm has received two reports of cuffs cracking during boot fittings. No injuries have been reported.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the ski boots and return them to the nearest dealer for a free replacement.
