Pro Performance is recalling about 52,000 SKLZ Recoil 360™ All-Position Resistance Trainers. A weld on the belt ring can break during use, causing the 8-foot flexible cord to snap back and hit a partner or coach. There have been three reports of serious injuries including blunt trauma, a puncture wound, and a laceration. These trainers were sold for about $40 at major sporting goods stores like Dick’s and Academy Sports, as well as online at Amazon and SKLZ.com between January 2013 and December 2014. Consumers should immediately stop using these products and contact the company for a free replacement.
When the weld on the belt ring breaks, the tension in the stretched cord causes it to retract at high speed toward the person holding the safety handle. This unexpected impact can cause severe blunt force trauma, deep puncture wounds, or lacerations.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled resistance trainers and contact SKLZ to return them for a free replacement resistance trainer, including free shipping.
