K2 Corp. and the CPSC have recalled FLIGHT ALX in-line skates with model numbers S00161 or S00162 that were manufactured before November 20, 1999. The recalled skates come in two styles: women's maroon and silver versions in sizes 4-11, and men's gray and orange versions in sizes 5-14. You can identify the model number on the skate's tongue and the manufacturing date on the heel footbed, which appears as an eight-digit number showing year, month, and day.
The plastic brake mount on these skates can crack and fail, which may cause the skater to fall and suffer serious injury. According to the recall notice, consumers should stop using the skates immediately and return them to the store where they were purchased to receive free replacement skates.
