PRODUCT RECALL NOTICE: ARMADA, ATOMIC AND SALOMON RECALLING SELECT SKI TOURING BINDINGS

Voluntary and precautionary recall enacted in response to potential breakage

Leading ski equipment manufacturers, Armada, Atomic and Salomon today issued a voluntary and precautionary product recall for a specific production run of the “Tracer”, “Backland” and “MTN“ bindings.

Following reports from several retailers and our own technical investigation. It was revealed that under specific conditions, there is a potential risk of breakage of the spring guiding axis on the toe piece of the binding. Such a failure could lead to the disconnection of the ski boot from the ski, which may cause a skier to lose control, fall or suffer injuries.

Bindings purchased before May 1st, 2022, are not affected by this voluntary recall and customers who believe they have affected bindings should immediately stop using them and take further action.

Customers have two paths to identify impacted bindings:

  1. Visit [https://www.atomic.com/safety-notice] and follow instructions to identify the specific binding production batch for individual bindings.
  2. Visit the nearest authorized dealer to have brand experts determine if specific bindings are subject to recall.
