Black Diamond Recalling Scarpa Boots

Did we already go through this, yep we sure did. Black Diamond Equipment is recalling about 2,300 pairs of Scarpa T2X Telemark Ski Boots.

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. The firm has received two reports of cuffs cracking during boot fittings. No injuries have been reported.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, and women's cuffs are blue.

They were sold by ski retailers, mail order and the Black Diamond Web site from September '05 through October 10, '05 for about $560. Consumers were advised they should stop using the ski boots and return them to the nearest dealer for a free replacement.
