Burton is recalling approximately 4,800 Step On snowboard boots from the winter 2017-2019 seasons because the boots can unexpectedly release from the binding. This defect has led to seven reports of boots releasing while in use, creating a serious fall hazard. The recalled boots include models such as Photon, Felix, Ruler, Limelight, Ion, and Zipline, sold in various colors. Consumers should contact Burton to receive a free replacement heel cleat to repair the issue.
The heel cleat on the boot may fail to stay securely locked into the snowboard binding, causing the boot to detach suddenly while the user is riding. This unexpected release can lead to a loss of control and result in a fall, although no injuries have been reported to date.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled snowboard boots and contact Burton to receive a free new heel cleat. Burton is contacting all known purchasers directly.
