Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Arena North America is recalling about 3,350 Arena Swim Snorkel Pro II and Swim Snorkel II devices because they can release small pieces of plastic from inside the tube or mouthpiece. These pieces can be inhaled, which one consumer has already reported occurring. These snorkels were sold in black, acid lime, and pink at swim shops nationwide and online from February 2018 through May 2020. Consumers should immediately stop using these snorkels and contact Arena for a free replacement tube or mouthpiece.

Risk

Excess material inside the snorkel tube or mouthpiece can break loose during use, creating a choking hazard if the material is inhaled or swallowed by the swimmer.
